Storytime Theme: Laughter

For the month of November, I’m going to be sharing storytime themes about the things I’m grateful for! Time for a little laughter. It’s one of the things that keep me going right now. It’s been a rough year for just about everyone and when I think I can’t handle one more thing, one more thing happens.

And it’s everything from a giggle after a silly joke or passing comment from my partner, to the crying-you’re-laughing-so hard on a Zoom call with family. No matter what it is, it’s lightening my mood and helping me breathe just a little easier! Here are nine great storytime books that are sure to have kids and their adults giggling too for a storytime theme: laughter! Don’t miss last week’s grateful storytime, all about families!
