Tales for Tots: Reading and Crafts

We just added a Children's book club to our calendar, meeting every month. What a great way for your toddler to learn a love for books.

We will met at the library till the nice weather comes then we'll bring it outdoors. Each month a new book will be chosen and the playgroup the next day will include a craft that is based around that book, bring it all together!

This week in our playgroup we read the Story "The Carrot Seed", by Ruth Krauss - the storybook we named in our monthly newsletter and followed that up with a craft.

The kids had a ton of fun getting dirty filing up their biodegradeable planter with soil, then planting the seeds for their herb. We weren't without a chance to do some art as well, with the kids coloring the pictures of the Carrots!


Here are a few pictures from the playgroup. You can see all the pictures from the playgroup in our momstown moments slideshow in the right hand column of our blog.
