Parents and Teachers: New Book Helps Reinforce Calendar Skills for Children
Los Angeles, CA, November 01, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press author Dawn Menge presents Queen Vernita’s Visitors, a colorful children’s book that provides a fun and creative way for parents and teachers to teach the days of the week and the months of the year.
Using repetition and drilling techniques helps to reinforce facts and concepts. Teachers and parents know that it’s easy to diminish a child’s interest in learning if the process itself is boring. Dawn Menge is well aware of this, and cleverly disguises the learning process in a series of tales that are sure to capture a child’s attention.
In Queen Vernita’s Visitors, the queen invites twelve young friends to visit with her, one for each month of the year. And the queen is a hostess who knows how to show her friends a good time! From snowball fights on Fridays in February to picking apples every Thursday in September, Queen Vernita and her friends enjoy a variety of games and adventures, capturing kids’ imaginations while reinforcing their calendar skills. Queen Vernita’s Visitors is destined to be a treasured addition to every child’s home and a useful teaching tool in the classroom.
