Storytime Theme: Sound
Sound (for many people) is a large part of everyday life! So today, I’m sharing a fun STEM-based storytime lesson plan all about sound. Whether you’re going to focus on animal sounds or how sound actually works, there are some books for everyone! Plus, I’ve included some really fun songs that are great for storytime crowds. And, or course, I had to include some (loud) sound-based activities to choose from as well.
