Hi guys its Carrie Anne from EverythingMom and today's book pick is the picture
book This is How We Do It. The day of the lives of seven kids from around the
world. We base our knowledge on the world we live in and we do it our kids do it.
So the one thing I love about travel and we talk about travel on this site on
Thursdays but one thing I like about travel is it opens your mind to things
that may be different from what you are familiar with. This is How We Do It
basically follows these seven families through their day, from getting up in the
morning and eating their breakfast. How they get to school. What they do in
school. What their classroom, like how they learn in school. What they do for
play. How they help out at home if they have chores. How they spend their evening.
When you're reading you will see words that are underlined like plantains when
they're talking about what they eat in Peru.
These underlined words indicates that at the back of the book there is a glossary.
Perhaps these are new words so better explain what those words may be. I also
love no matter how different a day in the life of these children are around
the world they have the same sort of night sky, they see the same moon and
it just kind of brings in that reminder that yes there are differences
but we are sort of all part of the same Earth together. So I think that was a
nice kind of way to wrap it up. This week's book pick, This Is How We Do It, is
a great book to remind kids that the the way they go about their day may be very
different from other kids around the world. It opens their mind. It helps to
expand a child's understanding and acceptance of the world as a bigger part
and that I think is an important gift to give to kids. I'll be sure to include
a link below to the full review of the book as well as how you can get your own
copy of it to add to your library. Don't forget to give this little thumbs up if
you liked this video found it helpful like to see more videos like it. As
always you can find me here on Wednesdays talking books for kids but
I'm also here talking family travel, mom confessions, and other fun family stuff.
So don't forget to subscribe so you know when the next video is published and
until next time, ciao.
