Life has been busy for me over the last couple weeks. The blog has had to take less of a priority. I try to be consistent about posting every Monday, but occasionally that just can't happen. Sorry!
Below is list of books that will be highlighted in upcoming posts. You may want to request the titles now from your library so that you are ready with the book once the project is posted. I've listed more books than you'll need in case some of the book titles are not available at your local library.
Easter/Spring- Five little Chicks by Nancy Tafuri The Surprise Visitor by Juli Kangas Minerva Louise and the Colorful Eggs by Janet Stoeke Queen of Easter by Mary Engelbreit Max's Chocolate Chicken by Rosemary Wells Arthur's Jelly Beans by Marc Brown The Easter Egg Farm by Mary Jane Auch The Best Easter Hunt Ever by John Speirs The Country Bunny by Du Bose Heyward The Grumpy Easter Bunny by Justine Korman Last One in is a Rotten Egg! by Diane deGroat He is Risen by Elizabeth Winthrop
About Me
I am former Early Childhood Educator and now stay at home mom. I wanted to start this blog to help share ideas to other young moms as well as to help motivate me to do fun activities with my own children. Interactive Literature activities are my favorite preschool activities because it helps children learn to love books. What this means is to choose a book and plan an activity that relates to the book, to extend their learning. Normally I will post a specific book and an activity to go with it. During holiday times there will be lots of book ideas and activities to choose from. Most often the activities will be art projects, but not always. Remember that with any early childhood activity, the emphasis should be about the process of doing the activity and not about the outcomes. As hard as it might be, try to resist fixing and doing things for them and let them create on their own. The photos are just visual examples and not meant to be "cookie cutter" copies.
