Looking for rhyming words activities, phoneme substitution activities, name activities, or interactive class books for preschool and kindergarten? This bundle includes 4 personalized animal rhyming class books that turn your students’ names and photos into interactive lift-the-flap guessing games.

With familiar names, silly rhymes, and a surprise under every flap, kids get playful practice with rhyming words, phonological awareness, phoneme substitution, beginning sounds, and name recognition.
Perfect for preschool, pre-k, kindergarten, special education, Back to School, All About Me, zoo themes, animal themes, circle time, and phonological awareness routines.

❤️ THE WORD PLAY IS ALL ABOUT YOUR KIDS
These aren’t rhyming activities filled with random words and pictures.
Your students are the stars of the books.
Because kids are listening for their own names and their friends’ names, they have a meaningful reason to pay attention to the sounds they hear.
And let’s face it...kids LOVE finding themselves in a book.
Use the books during circle time or as part of your phonological awareness routine. Then add them to your classroom library so kids can enjoy the silly rhymes, familiar faces, and lift-the-flap surprises again and again.
✅ EASY TO PERSONALIZE
You don't have to come up with a silly rhyme for every child in your class.
Enter your class list into the editable document, and the silly rhyming names are automatically generated for you.
Then:
- Add each child’s digital photo
- Review the automatically generated rhymes
- Use the custom flap template if you’d like to change a rhyme
- Personalize the cover with your teacher/class name or year
- Print and assemble your books
Complete step-by-step directions are included.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Not only are their detailed directions telling you how to insert/change the names... she offers so many choices to use! I am so excited and so are my students!" - Aubrey H
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "My little one LOVES THIS! This is by far her favorite book now. I loved that it was open ended, so I could put any person she knows and loves in it, even her dog! She gets such a laugh out of it, and I love that she doesn't even realize she's learning. This helps her with rhyming as well as talking about "under" and "above." Thank you for such an AMAZING resource!!" - Rebecca C.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Oh my gosh, this is so cute! My students loved this class book we made during our rhyming words unit…they would read it over and over again during quiet reading! So cute!" - Heather K.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "OMG, my students love these! They love seeing their picture in the book and hearing the silly rhyme with their names. They ask for these for every letter, but I tell them I only have a few animal characters and they get the picture with these. Great, great activity for phonemic awareness!" - Deanna D.
