Sharing My Toys is an interactive book that highlights the importance of sharing among children, both in playtime and with their belongings.
At the end of the book, the child gets to practice the concept of sharing by moving a slider right and left to share a toy between Adam and his friend. This allows them to develop their sensory and motor skills at the same time practice the concept of sharing.
This book is part of the I Am Adam series by Adam wa Mishmish. Additionally, it is connected to a YouTube song and its very own augmented reality App, both of which can be accessed by scanning the codes on the back cover of the book.
Playing various types of games together is crucial at this age. Play takes up a significant portion of a child's time. This book highlights the significance of sharing games to foster enjoyment and encourage teamwork, rather than conflict and disagreements. The engaging interactive illustrations help children connect the idea with the content, enabling them to understand the meaning of sharing and applying it in real life. The book concludes with an interactive page where children can share the toy between Adam and his friend.
