Bizzy Bear: Famous Artist
Join Bizzy Bear on this fun, arty adventure! Preschoolers love making things, so they will be delighted to help Bizzy choose materials, mix colours, make a beautiful painting and show it at the gallery’s opening night.
With five easy-to-use sliders, a rhyming story and lots to spot and say, this vibrant, interactive board book is perfect for little ones who love to make and do.
By pushing, pulling and turning the mechanisms, little hands can move the story onto the next scene and bring the rhyming text to life! The high level of interaction builds confidence and engagement with books, which is an essential stepping stone to reading, as well as develops gross and fine motor skills.
