Learning alphabets from household things




Alphabet House by Nancy Elizabeth Wallace

In the first few pages theres a house front with lot of windows that look like B. I guessed this is the alphabet house where you see a letter on or in the house structure. In the next pages, while I was amused that the playing cards of bunnies have a carrot sign, a closer look revealed that each thing in the house starts with the letter of that page. One would wonder if ways of making alphabet learning fun are left. Looks like not.
The felt look of cutouts glued together adds another dimension to the book. The child can notice different things each time. So its not the book given in the pediatrecian's office where a letter stands for one only one thing.
