Weddings Are In The Air...

Before we get any further, I must admit that my head has been caught up in wedding fever of late. Cake, flowers, dresses....and flowergirls.

As my wedding date approaches, I have had to think about how to get the flowergirl 'into the zone' of a wedding; it will be both her's and mine's first weddings :) Other than luring her down the aisle with lollipops, I had to think of an easy way to make this fun!

And then I found this book:



Available on Amazon, Fishpond
and a bunch of other places

Since the flowergirl will only be 3 - this gives her and me lots of time to read the story together and get excited! There are lovely descriptions and illustrations of what a flowergirl does, and how flowergirls can do different things at different weddings.
This also makes this book suitable for a variety of weddings, from church ceremonies to garden ceremonies and from casual through to ultra traditional.

It also addresses concerns that your flowergirl may have, including what to expect at a wedding as well as subtle cues about how to behave at a wedding.

Other fun things that flowergirls might get to do include trying on a twirly dress, walking down the aisle, smiling big for pictures...and most importantly having lots of fun! Sophie (the main character) also manages to save the day!

It is full of cute illustrations and lets be fair - is priced well! - about $9.00 per book.

Enjoy reading to your children!
