Like many mothers, I am also a mother who insists on parent-child reading. After reading a lot of books with my children and going to many places, I had the urge to make a book for my children. As a craft enthusiast

, I find this matter particularly interesting.

1. What are the benefits of making your own picture books?

Making picture books for children can record every detail of their growth. For example, when we went on a 14-day trip last year, I compiled the scenery we saw and the history and culture of each place into a book, so that it is convenient for children to recall, and it can also be used as a book.

Learn geography.

When making picture books for children, you can make her own early education picture books based on the child's characteristics. For example, you can make a book about her favorite animals, favorite animations, favorite means of transportation, and even numbers and English.

Older children can also create together with him. Making books is also a good handicraft experience!

2. What are the possible themes of picture books?

1. A child’s growth and progress at each stage, such as when a child learns to crawl, sit, stand, etc. These important growth events can be made into a book called: Child’s Growth Events; 2. Interesting things about a child’s growth, such as

Some interesting paintings from children, coupled with some cute animals, is also a good picture book; 3. Parent-child activities and parent-child travel, make the scenery of the journey, historical stories, interesting things about children, etc. into books, which can be convenient for recall, and also

It can supplement the scenery seen in a hurry during the journey.

For example, I took my doll to see giant pandas. I originally wanted to buy a picture book about giant pandas, but it didn’t quite meet my needs, so I made one myself.

Organize pictures, living habits, habitats, etc. of giant pandas as needed.

I went to Du Fu’s Thatched Cottage and took photos of all the people I saw in the thatched cottage for the convenience of my children.

4. Parents’ expectations for their children or correcting their children’s shortcomings.

For example, I hope that the baby will not throw things away, and use her favorite animals to make up a story that is both educational and entertaining.

5. Cognitive needs.

As mentioned before, make some animals, numbers, English, vehicles, etc. into picture books as cognitive reading materials for children.

3. Methods for making picture books. I have summarized several methods for making picture books. 1. Photo picture books about journeys, geographical knowledge, and historical stories. This method is suitable for this method.

Prepare hard cardboard for the cover, photo album paper for the inner pages, and print out the photos you need.

Post it well and add text.

2. Hand-painting can be based on 1, plus your own hand-painting.

Or just use hand-drawing to record the little things and interesting words about your child’s growth.

3. Making non-woven fabric Non-woven fabric is an environmentally friendly handmade material. Use it to make some cognitive picture books that are beautiful and beautiful. I will explain in detail in the fourth part.

The first and second methods above can also be added with decorative materials, such as patterned transparent tape, rubbings, stickers, etc.

4. Steps for making a non-woven book. I am a non-woven enthusiast. Readers who have read my article should have seen my handmade works.

1. Let’s take a look at a few finished products first. 2. Prepare materials such as non-woven fabric, glue, hole punch, metal ring, needle and thread, and air-erasable pen. 3. Determine the number of pages during the production process and make the size of the cover and inner pages (preferably in

When buying materials, buy the size that suits you so that you don’t need to cut it.) Use the rest to make a pattern; use glue to paste the cut pieces on the inner pages, and sew the areas that are not fixed enough with needle and thread.
