Create & Colour Stories: Dinosaurs is an activity book to boost your young child's early reading, writing and pen control skills in a fun way.  

A simple 'fill-in-the-gap' writing book, with fun colouring, Create & Colour Stories: Dinosaurs encourages your child to use their imagination and improve their writing skills.

Inside the book, your child will find three prehistoric-inspired stories, and each story can be approached in three ways, depending on your child's age, learning stage, or even just how they're feeling that day.

  1. Colouring: Each of the book's stories has colour-in pages for sneaky laid-back development – colouring improves fine motor skills and pen control, prompts decision making (which colour?), and is wonderfully calm in its repetitive movements. Plus colouring works for all ages and stages. AND it's fun!
  2. Sentence-starting prompts: Even the brightest sparks can find it tricky to come up with a story when they need to write it down. Young children often need prompts, be it an image or some key words. Throughout the book, Create & Colour Stories: Dinosaurs gives sentences that your child needs to finish, in whichever way their imagination takes them – such as 'A long time ago in a leafy forest lived a big scary dinosaur called…". And don't forget, first time round they can just chat about their ideas, until they feel confident enough to write something down.
  3. Mini activity or question: Simple prompts throughout the book give your child a little extra to do or think about. Such as 'Where would be a good place for a dinosaur to hide?'.

Create & Colour Stories: Dinosaurs is a wonderful book to boost your child's writing and reading skills, without it feeling as daunting as a blank page. Learning happens much more easily when we make it fun!

Ideal activity book for children aged 5+.
At age 5, your child is likely to be able to write a few words – and they can certainly talk about their ideas. They'll need your help to read the book's text.
By 7 years old, your child should be able to read the book's prompts and write full sentences largely independently.
