If ANIMALS WERE FIREFIGHTERS Pictures to color, Questions to Answer: Kids' Activity book, Ages 6-9+ (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798705718542)

What would it be like if animals were firefighters? Firefighter jobs like people have. With this coloring book you can use your imagination as you think about how each of the animals would do their job. This book contains 30 different animal firefighter pictures for you to color, showing them doing the same kinds of jobs that people do. There is a space below each picture for you to describe what they do in that job.

Kids will benefit from this book by

• Developing fine motor skills in coloring the designs
• Enjoying imagining the adventures shown in the pictures they are coloring
• Encouraging the child to think about different jobs and what each one involves
• Developing and using their writing skills as they describe the job in each picture
• Being able to take pride in each finished project

Following through with projects and having a sense of accomplishment and pride in the completed pictures are important to a child's development. These accomplishments increase a child's self-confidence and feelings of self-worth. Having fun while doing so makes this enjoyable and rewarding. It is my wish and desire that anyone using this book has a wonderful time in creating their own individual masterpieces. The child can sign each completed picture to make them their own extra-special works of art.
