To be eligible for the sweepstakes you must leave a comment on this post answering who is your favorite princess. This sweepstakes is open to American residents 18 years or older. One lucky reader will be chosen at random to receive a prize pack that will include: We had so much fun but I will say that the scratch off paint makes a wee bit of a mess so you might not want to try this for bedtime reading. You can do the whole list or a few a night, just know that they are in order. The words are in order so once the child finds the word they scratched off, the next will follow. Going down the left column first, then the right. When you are ready to do the sight word activity, sit down with your child and have them scratch off a word. I used Primer ( Kindergarten) sight words for this activity even though my daughter is now in first grade because it’s a fun way to review. You will need this printable, some metallic paint, dish soap, a paint brush, dish, and of course the book. Check out the details after the sight word activity. Lucky for you Disney Publishing is providing one two-book set of Elena of Avalor books for one lucky reader. Elena is a wonderful role model and what I like about her is she isn’t portrayed as perfectly perfect, she comes across as human and readers can relate to that. Elena’s journey will lead her to understand that her new role requires thoughtfulness, resilience and compassion, the traits of all truly great leaders. It introduces Elena as a brave and adventurous teenager who saves her kingdom from an evil sorceress and must now learn to rule as crown princess until she is old enough to be queen. The fable which has no set time period includes major influences of Latin and Hispanic cultures. Immediately, I thought I would incorporate sight words since the target age for reading this book is kindergarten through 2nd grade, prime time for working on those sight words! For this post sponsored by Disney Books I have created a custom printable with sight words straight from the book Elena and the Secret of Avalor and then added scratch off paint – it’s a little messy, but seriously this is such a fun way to work on sight words!īefore we get to how I made the scratch off paint or the printable let me share a bit about the book: Elena and The Secret of Avalor was released earlier this month, and Disney Books asked me to think of a fun activity to go with this book and the amazing Elena of Avalor.
