Let's Put It Together Vol. 1

<p>Lorrie Smith grew up in the Midwest. In a big (poor) family of four brothers and two sisters and because the winters were long and cold to keep children from being bored they became creative and played games like Let's Put It Together which is what this book is about. Lorrie said Playing that game brought smiles and laughter into our home. So she thought she'd share the fun with other children parents and grandparents to spread the joy of compound words. Lorrie created all the drawings and continues to draw in her Minnesota home for future versions of this book. The pages are large enough for even the smallest youngsters to see what each page is about. Each page has two color pictures that youngsters have to identify with the first player saying what the first picture is and then the second youngster identifying the second picture. Then the youngsters combine the words from the pictures and together say what the compound word is amidst clapping. Lorrie said Kids are all special. This game is a way to turn off the TV and play read and communicate with youngsters while challenging the mind. Teach and learn with children. Play at home in the car at appointments while waiting. Any time is right. Please enjoy Let's Put It Together. Clap clap.</p>
