Storytime Theme: Libraries

Well, it isn’t hard to imagine why this might be one of my favorite lesson plans for storytime! I’ve loved libraries since I was little and have worked in libraries since I was 14 years old! This sweet storytime is sure to be loved by librarians and library kids alike and with a couple of books on this list by children’s literature and library advocates – you know you’re in the right place.

Some of these titles are inspiring, others are silly – all are about the library. And, I was even able to find some great songs about libraries too! But, rather than focus on libraries for the activities section, I wanted to focus on process art for kids instead. So often you see parents ~~helping~~ making their child’s craft because they want it to look like the example. Rather, process art is just about that – the process of creating, not focusing on the results. So, I’m sharing a couple of fun activities for process art and a great resources from NAEYC about the importance of process art! So, the next time you’re searching for a theme for storytime – be inspired by the place you’re standing in and make it all about the library!
