I love using children’s literature as inspiration for activities to do with kids both in a classroom and home setting. There is such a wealth of amazing children’s books to explore. This enthusiasm for literacy inspired me to create the Preschool Book Club Series. Here are my favorite 12 Activities Based on Children’s Books.
