Storytime Theme: Easter
I’ve written up a lot of holiday storytime themes this year, and while Christmas is around the corner, I’m focusing on another Christian holiday today, Easter. Like many of the other holiday storytimes I’ve published this year, I focused on providing readers with recently published Easter titles as a way…

Storytime Theme: April Fool’s Day
This was a lot trickier than I had originally thought! For one, there aren’t a ton of April Fool’s Day picture books and some are now out of print. I included them on this list anyway because you may be able to find them in your local library. In terms…

Storytime Theme: Singing
It’s time for storytime series! I’m going to be focusing on key areas that parents and caregivers can focus on to build their child’s early literacy skills. These are simple things that parents and caregivers are probably already doing, now you can encourage them to do these practices with purpose!…

Storytime Theme: Holi
This is the most colorful holiday that I know of and it’s such a great holiday to celebrate at storytime because of all the colors! Come celebrate Holi, a Hindu Festival of Colors, Love, and Spring. Many people celebrate by spreading powdered color on each other and there is music…

Storytime Theme: Eid
You can’t very well have an Eid storytime without a Ramadan storytime! But, you’re in luck, because you’ll find both lesson plans on Literacious! Celebrate Eid at storytime with these wonderful picture books, a few songs, and some crafts too! I’ve provided both stories as well as few non-fiction books…

Storytime Theme: Days of the Week
I hadn’t realized (until I had basically written up this entire lesson plan) that I had created a Days of the Week storytime lesson plan just a few years ago. But, alas, here we are and I found a few new titles, songs, and activities to do! I think this…

Storytime Theme: Doors
This storytime, like many, started as one thing and then morphed it’s way into this one. I really wanted to do a knocking on the door/ringing the doorbell storytime, but I was really struggling to come up with books to fit the theme. So, instead, I decided to go with…

Storytime Theme: Women’s History Month
This is a little bit of a stretch for a storytime theme, but I thought I’d give it a try. I think in order for this type of lesson plan to be successful, you’ll need to really consider how much of each book you’re going to read and maybe even…
