One of my favorite things to do with my nephew is to go out to our favorite restaurants! We love to go for Korean, Dim Sum, and Indian/Pakistani food!
For Dim Sum, we usually meet up with JP and her family. Dim Sum is one her favorite activities too! The two of them will eat shrimp dumplings for the entire time, non stop. I think my nephew once had like 12!
What a great topic to support with reading!
Yum Yum Dim Sum from: World Snacks Books is a great book to read! It has wonderful pictures as well as a catchy rhyme! We love the part, Why oh why my little shu mai, why do I love you so?
I saw Grace Lin speak this year about her books and writing process. Dim Sum For Everyone is another favorite we like to read!
The World Snacks Books is an entire series of food and culture for little kids! They each have their own set of rhymes and they each inspire you to want to eat delicious food! Chaat and Sweets is another favorite of ours to read.
Bee Bim Bop, by Linda Sue Park, tops off our culinary tour of food through books!
Why not eat and read together! If you don't want to get your books sticky, read about the food you love most! Who knows, you all might find something new to try.
My two favorite topics= books + food! Yum!

ReplyDeleteGrace is amazing- She won a big award for her chapter book this year! She started out as a graphic artist! How cool- and now she weaves her two talents together- in every detail of all her books.
