Storytime Theme: Letter Z
It’s finally here! After 26 weeks of lesson plans, we have reached the final letter of the alphabet – Letter Z! It’s been a long time coming, but I’m so excited to provide librarians, teachers, and families with so much great content to serve their little readers. These storytime lesson…

Storytime Theme: Letter Y
It’s letter Y’s day to shine! And honestly, a heck of a lot easier than letter x last week! With great words like yoga, yak, and you – there’s an infinite number of ways to take this lesson plan. And it wasn’t even too difficult to find songs, rhymes, and…

Storytime Theme: Letter X
This was the letter that I was most concerned about and for good cause – the letter X is a tricky one for picture books and storytime themes. In fact, I had to cheat the system and used words with the letter x in them somewhere, rather than just at…

Storytime Theme: Letter U
I’ll be honest, the end of the alphabet gets a little trickier with some letters that are not so easy to find picture books for, but I will persevere because after this week there are only five more letters left! I can’t believe it! Today’s letter was difficult, no doubt…

Storytime Theme: Letter T
Today’s all about the letter T! T is a great letter for all things transportation – trains, trucks, and tractors! Plus, other great words like tacos, tigers, and teeth! This was a really fun storytime lesson plan to write up with great books, some fun songs, and crafts that support…

Storytime Theme: Letter S
The end of the alphabet is coming quick – we’re already up to Letter S! And like the Letter R last week, this is a simple storytime to pull together because there are so many amazing words that start with the letter s for kids. You can go completely animals…

Storytime Theme: Letter R
This has been one of the easiest letters to create a lesson plan for! There are so many great letter R words for kids and there are plenty of choices when it comes to books and activities to extend learning. There are so many directions you can go with this…
