Interest Inventory Worksheet

The Interest Inventory Worksheet is a parent observation tool from Module 1, Lesson 1.2 of Words That Bloom. It guides parents through a simple 10-minute observation exercise where they watch their child during everyday moments — play, conversation, screen time — and record what they notice across seven categories like play themes, questions they ask, and physical activities.

From those observations, parents identify their child’s top 3 recurring interests, then brainstorm books or topics that connect to each one. The goal is to use a child’s natural passions as a bridge into reading, turning book selection into something intentional rather than guesswork.
