My First Dictionary: 1,000 Words, Pictures, and Definitions (My First Reference)

If you're looking for a fantastic Pre-K classroom or home library dictionary, look no further than My First Dictionary. With 1,000 entries and a picture for every word, this reference book is perfect for young children ages five and up. It covers nouns, verbs, and adjectives that young children most commonly encounter, and the definitions are given in terms that are easy for them to understand. My young students love exploring the world of words with My First Dictionary!

Purchased for homeschooling purposes. My 3 year old really wasn’t all that impressed with this book because she already knew most of the words listed. My 2 year old on the other hand was all about the “baby dictionary” and liked going over the pictures with the words. My 3 year old ended up taking my 10 year olds elementary dictionary purchased for homeschooling and preferring that. This is absolutely a first dictionary that really is geared for babies. The pictures are great and it’s VERY BASIC. This maybe a good option for little ones preparing for preschool.

Perfect for my 5-year old who is just starting to learn how to spell and read in kindergarten. I looked through almost all of the children's dictionaries available on Amazon before making a purchase. The big advantages of this dictionary is that it has a picture for EVERY word, so even children who can't read at all can find the right word. Most of the other so called "picture dictionaries" only had one picture a page and tones of words with text explanations only, which is useless for someone who can't read. It's easy and intuitive to use and build the habit of looking things up. The level of the word is also appropriate for early learners - granted it's mostly nouns, some verbs and small number of adjectives, but you won't need much more than that for kindergarten. The illustrations are pretty, to the point, and well picked photos. Also a generally pleasing book to look at.

I bought these recently because we wanted our older 7 yr old to be able to look up words instead of just asking us how to spell stuff. Well if you have two kids you know if you buy one kid something the other kid wants it so we got this dictionary for our 4 yr old. it's a great Pictionary type book. She likes to just pick it up and read through it like a regular book even though she can't read. this is great for a parent to sit down with their 4 or 5 yr old that can't read yet and read through this book with them. The pictures or big & colorful and the definitions aren't complicated so that a 4 or 5 yr old can understand them.

This is for my five year old granddaughter. She loves to learn, so this is right up her alley. She’s learning a lot and fast.

My oldest is 5 and just started kindergarten this year and I thought it would be a good idea to introduce a dictionary into his curriculum if I could find one that aligned with his skill level. As he can't read yet, I was looking for a dictionary that included a picture for every word, and a definition and an example sentence with the word to help expand his skills. This is exactly what I envisioned. It is beautifully designed. I only flipped through it, so I cannot attest to the in-depth quality just yet. At a glance, I would absolutely recommend it for children 5 years and up or an advanced 3 or 4 year old if you wanted to get them started early. How I plan to use this: As an introduction to dictionaries, I plan to explain to him what a dictionary is and skim through it with him- see if anything catches his eye. Then I'll explain how it works when we pick a specific picture, how the picture represents the word and then it provides an explanation of that word and then read him the sentence. After, (because the dictionary is limited to 1,000 words) I will suggest a short premade list of words that he can choose from and I will start to teach him how to look up words. I think this method can also be helped later on to introduce/reinforce 'alphabetical order'. I also might choose to have him copy the definition of the selected word because all definitions are captioned in short sentences, but it's just an idea if we want extra writing practice.

This is my 20 month old son's favorite book. When he wants to read, he will go to the shelf where there about 40 books, including an ever rotating library selection, and he will choose this book nearly every day. At first he would point to pictures and ask tirelessly what was there. Now, 3 months later, when he points, I ask him what he sees, and delights in naming and describing the pictures! It's a beautiful book with clear pictures and simple descriptions, and it has more than nouns! There are also a handful of emotions, which is awesome and helpful for the toddler crowd. The only downside is that we've had to reinforce nearly every page with tape because he is a vigorous page turner. It's also big enough that I can read it to two toddlers at once.

Perfect book with picture and words to learn word recognition but goes step further with definition so as they grow they can continue their use of this one. My first grade granddaughter's teacher suggested to buy a picture dictionary to help her move into larger word recognition near the end of the school year and its going to do its job I am sure and more as I said. It will also help her pre-k sister learn word recognition to begin to read. Awesome book. Money well spent for young children educational help with reading/word recognition.
