We love a a great book. What makes a good book even better, si a fun craft or activity to go along with the book. Kids remember the activity long after the book has gone back to the library and will even pull out a, “Hey mom, remember when we made that snack to go with that book about buttons?” I love when we see a particular book again on the shelves at the library and Little Guy says, “Hey! we did a craft for that one!” We pulled some fun features from Share It Saturday this week…all about literacy for kids and activities, crafts, sensory bins, and learning that goes along with great books.
