Storytime Theme: Bicycles
This is a little different in terms of storytimes, because I think it would best suit preschoolers and even early elementary school age. I think if you chose carefully, you could still create a solid toddler plan, but I think the subject matter lends itself more for a little bit…

Storytime Theme: Circles
Here comes a circle storytime! Can you believe I haven’t done a circles-themed storytime before? And while general shape books are easy to find, it’s not as easy to find a specific shape that is the main subject for the entire story. So, with that, I stretched out beyond just…

Storytime Theme: Peas & Carrots
I stumbled across this adorable storytime theme as I was trying to think of new ideas to try on my blog and I thought it was too cute to pass up! What’s great about stoytime is that ten different people can host a storytime on the same theme and each…

Storytime Theme: Rainbow
Well, it’s the final color-themed storytime for a while – I couldn’t ignore the rainbow! The series just didn’t seem complete without an all-encompassing rainbow themed storytime lesson plan.

Storytime Theme: Summer
Storytime lesson plans don’t need to be complicated! They need to be developmentally appropriate for the age group, but rather than trying to think up elaborate themes with limited books to support it, why not try something easy? A seasonal storytime theme is great because there are so many different…

Storytime Theme: Blue
It’s time for one of my favorite colors – blue! And while my official favorite color is teal, I love shades of blue of all types from the lightest blues to the deepest, dark colors. And if you’re just joining me, check out red, orange, yellow, and green that were…

Storytime Theme: Green
Green is the color of storytime this week! I love green because it allows us to explore the outdoors with lots of animals and plants. And if you’re just joining me, check out red, orange, and yellow that were posted earlier and come back again for trip through all the…
