Minnie's Bow-tique uses beloved characters and an engaging story to introduce a core curriculum of Social Skills, Sorting & Classifying and Memory Skills. In a bow-making activity, young readers use memory skills to help Minnie "make bows" by listening to the bow description" and touching on bows and buckets of paint in the correct order. The story provides a perfect context for teaching a range of social skills€"from learning what it means to be a good friend, listening, noticing when a friend has a problem, and lending a hand to help when you can. Children can also build important sorting and classifying skills by matching and grouping bows by color and size.
