Activities Inspired by Ish by Peter Reynolds

March 24, 2015 by Meredith @ Homegrown Friends

I am in love with  the activities for this week of Preschool Book Club!  This week we are exploring the book Ish by Peter H. Reynolds.  Ish is the story of a young boy who loves to draw until one day his confidence is depleted when his brother makes fun of his drawing.  His younger sister eventually teaches him that his artwork does not need to be perfect and he celebrates his unique view of the world again.  Each week of Preschool Book Club I declare it the best week ever, but as I started to see what the rest of the amazing Preschool Book Club Team were creating I became so excited.  This week is full of amazing work!  It is the best week ever!  Here are 5 creative Activities Inspired by Ish by Peter Reynolds.

    I love your Preschool Book Club and look forward to every new book your and the other ladies create activities for. You need to add Ish to the Book Club wall, so everyone can see these.
