Storytime Theme: Travel Adventure
With this year’s summer reading theme being “Adventure Beings at Your Library,” I wanted to make sure we have lots of great suggestions early in the year! Check out last week’s adventure themes – ocean and outdoors too!
This storytime lesson plan works well for an adventure-theme program but could work just as well for preparing for summer traveling. Whether you’re exploring your own neighborhood or hometown or you’re heading on a world wide trip, there’s a little something for everything when it comes to travel adventure picture books!
