Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, daycare provider, or anyone who works with children, the Storytime to Go Kits provide you with all the necessary materials needed to spend some quality reading time with a child. Storytime to Go kits make it easy for you to foster the love of reading in a child.
The kits were created for use with children ages 2 to 5 to promote early literacy development.
Each themed kit contains:
- five picture books
- a children’s music CD
- a manipulative (educational game, a puppet, puzzle, felt set, etc.)
- an Early Child Ready to Read activity sheet.
The activity sheet provides examples of how to incorporate each of the five early literacy skills – read, write, sing, talk, and play – with the contents of the kit.
