Children learn the art of pointillism and create paintings using this technique. We can use felt-tip pens, cotton swabs, and paint.

“Humanizing” objects or animals or attributing feelings to them is part of the fun in rhyming games. Observe the drawings with the child and talk with him/her about what indicates feelings in the drawing (like the happiness of the oil bottle for winning, or sleepiness of the tongue.)

“What are you wearing today? Open your closet and choose…” Sisi Clips invites us on the first page of the book. This activity may be fun to do with the child before reading the story and repeating it after finishing it. Will we choose our outfit our way or according to Sisi’s way?

About plot: We can observe the details of the illustrations, and encourage our child to describe them, follow the events, and make connections. We notice changes in the sea scene, the girl, and the birds, describing the girl’s feelings each time.

About personal experiences: Have we experienced similar feelings? How and when? We can recall our journeys, adventures, moments, and various experiences.

About seas and nature: What does the sea remind us of? Which seas have we visited? What other natural places do we know? We can compare them: how are they similar or different?
