Storytime Theme: Letter Q
Today’s storytime lesson plan has been the hardest one yet in the alphabet series! The Letter Q is a notoriously difficult letter, especially when it comes to words that are appropriate for toddlers and preschoolers and are also themes for picture books!
While you’ll find plenty of picture books about being quiet or about ducks that quack, it’s not as easy to find other “q” words to fill out a list of storytime books. But, I found nine different words to use in this letter Q storytime lesson plan. Whether you are looking to expand your storytimes or just looking to continue your way through the alphabet, this little letter q storytime has a little bit of everything. If you’re looking for something a little different, try and opposites storytime that kids will absolutely love – quiet and LOUD! Plus, there are some absolutely adorable q-tip craft ideas for kids that I think would be a lot of fun to try and make perfect letter Q crafts!
