We were recently sent a fun new book to review, Dear Zoo Spin and Say.

Dear Zoo has been staple reading in our house. Our copy is a supersize edition which adds an extra element of fun to this perfect lift the flap book.

In Dear Zoo Spin and Say the fun element are two spinners which can be used to help teach simple concepts, first words, numbers, different types of animals etc. “The sturdy pages are packed with everyone’s favourite animal friends from DEAR ZOO, as well as new wild animals and pets, and there’s a different question on every spread. How many? Who’s that animal? What colour? Simply spin the wheel, point and say!”

Freya was very keen on spinning the wheels, perhaps a little too enthusiastically at times, and she particularly enjoyed spotting the animals. Her vocabulary is growing daily and is always keen to spot things she recognises, spinning the wheel provided a fun alternative to the more traditional spotting books.

It was a fun book to share with Freya especially listening to her discover & sound out new words as well as her growing confidence in repeating her numbers.

Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. I was not asked to write this post, nor was I given any money for doing so, and the review represents my own honest opinion.
