Storytime Theme: Farm (2023 update)
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve created a lesson plan for a storytime theme all about farm life. And you’ll be seeing over the next few months, that I’m hoping to update some of my storytime themes with more updated (recently published) picture books, some new songs and crafts too! I’ve got some lists that you can also use including Down on the Farm, World Farm Animals Day, Sensory-Friendly Storytime, and even more! There is no shortage of farm-themed picture books out there, which makes creating a storytime lesson plan super easy!
