My daughters paints for my book🥰

The sweetest part of my new children’s book — a page painted by the little girl who inspired it all 🎨💖

Princess Lya’s Royal Visit is all about showing kindness and good manners when visiting others, part of my Heavenly Manners series that teaches character and manner for everyday moments in a fairytale way💕

Coming November 1st! 🌸👑 #books #childrensbook #toddler #sahm #momlife

2025/10/5 Edited to

... Read moreIncluding a child’s personal artwork in a children’s book deeply enhances the connection young readers feel with the story. It offers a unique authenticity that can make reading more engaging and relatable. In Princess Lya’s Royal Visit, the featured painted page by the little girl who inspired the story enriches the narrative by visually conveying the themes of kindness and courtesy. This approach aligns with educational philosophies that emphasize character development through storytelling. Books that teach manners through fairy tale settings—like Heavenly Manners series—offer a gentle and imaginative context for children to learn everyday values. They help children understand social behaviors such as greeting guests, sharing, and showing respect in enjoyable and memorable ways. Moreover, involving children in the creative process, as seen here, encourages their artistic expression and boosts self-esteem. It’s a wonderful reminder that children’s contributions matter and can inspire meaningful educational projects. As this book is set for release on November 1st, it offers a timely resource for parents and educators looking to introduce important social skills during key developmental stages. This makes Princess Lya’s Royal Visit a valuable addition to any child’s library, especially for toddlers and young readers who are just beginning to navigate social situations. Overall, the combination of the daughter’s own art, the focus on kindness, and the fairytale approach makes the book a heartfelt and effective tool for teaching manners. Readers and families can look forward to a gentle guide that nurtures good character through a story inspired by real family love and creativity.

I saw this idea to make paint out of crushed up sidewalk chalk and a little water. Sammy loved painting with it but mostly loved experimenting with mixing the colors! Highly recommend! It’s messy but you can just hose everything down since it’s just chalk!! #toddler #activitiesforpreschoolers
