Join our Weekly Virtual Book Club for Kids
Since 2012 I’ve been cohosting the Virtual Book Club for Kids with my co-organizers Kristina from Toddler Approved and Cerys from Rainy Day Mum. This past year we went from monthly ideas to weekly ideas and we had so much fun we’re doing it again.
Click here to see what books and activities they shared last year!
Are you ready to see what themes and books we’ve selected?
As moms and former teachers we’ve selected our favorite picture books to go along with popular preschool themes that your child will enjoy learning about. Think of these are your own personal preschool lesson plans for each week with your child.
A Special Preschool Book Club Group Just for You!
To add some accountability and give you support, we have created a Weekly Virtual Book Club for Kids Facebook Group where you can come and get activity ideas, get additional book recommendations, and share what you’re up to with your kids! The group will be closed and ONLY members of the Facebook group can see what is posted in the group.
