The creativity of my readers and the number of uses people have found for my books has been really inspirational. Below are some of the activities readers have used in conjunction with my books. If you have any other activities and fun stuff ideas, please leave a comment below.
Bookmarks
These are best if printed out on glossy photo paper. One 8.5″x11″ sheet of paper will produce 4 bookmarks.

Coloring Sheets
These are nice coloring sheets of the book covers. Print out on any standard printer, add crayons, and *presto!* happy kids!

Greeting Cards
This was a clever idea shared with me from a reader. She used this as an activity for Valentine’s Day. This is fun for the kids and also makes the gift to grandparents and other loved ones a little more special. In my experience, this works best if printed out on matte finish card stock.

You Are My I Love You – Around the World
I had no idea my books would be translated into so many other languages. This project idea was shared with me by a teacher in Maryland who used the books in the various languages to teach about similarities and differences in cultures around the world. This can be printed out on any standard printer and paper.
