What usually makes a better preschool page

Pick one easy subject, add one very clear setting, and avoid tiny details. If the child can point to the subject immediately, the page is usually ready.

  1. Subject

Puppy, apple, sun, rainbow, dinosaur, or one simple letter.

  1. Scene

One tree, one cloud, one ball, or one patch of grass.

  1. Print Rule

Thick outlines, large shapes, and no busy background patterns.
