We know that you LOVE BOOKS

Love Books Activity and Book Swap

We know that you love books! And since we are on the eve of a holiday that allows us to celebrate our love for our friends and family in our lives, why not share your love of books with the little people that live with you  =)  (Yes, your kids!)

The LOVE BOOKS Activity Swap through snail mail has completed. This awesome group of moms has designed, delivered, opened, and created with their children! Our kids have LOVED getting “real” mail and have played, learned, and explored in ways that we may not have before.

Best of all – the kids are EXCITED about reading. YIPPPEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We received this adorable explorer pack!

Critters and Crayons kids make Valentine Chameleon Plates!  Such a fun little twist to combine the holiday with an adorable book!

And the dynamic duo of Robyn and Whitney at Pen Pals and Picture Books were busy making alphabet trees

and having lots of fun with poetry!

And Little Sprout Books gets Fishy!

    This was such a great project! It was exciting for the kids (and for me)…we'll definitely participate again! And I think it's a super idea for local groups to draw on- so easy to do and it breaks us out of our own little boxes. 🙂 Thanks, again!
