After you and your child have written the story, let your child draw pictures under, above and around the words. Make a cover for the book using a piece of cardboard, construction paper or a manila folder. After you have created the book, read it together. This is a wonderful way of helping preschoolers develop a love for books. Look up answers to questions your child asks.
Preschoolers love to ask questions.
That way, your child will learn that books hold answers to lots of important questions. Have good preschool conversations. They talk so fast and never seem to need a break. But you need to let your child know that what he or she thinks is important, so don't rush conversations with your preschooler. Take the time to listen and reflect what your child is saying.
