When it comes to celebrating reading, there is no need for fancy elaborate activities! Simply sitting down with a good book is more than enough!
Our children’s library has a variety of books mainly from 2 categories
- bilingual books- these are the books that have 2 languages in one book
- monolingual books- these are the books that have 1 language in one book
We really try to expose our little ones to a variety of books and authors. This previous post shares the top places where to get free or affordable books.
For this year’s read-a-thon one of the books we fell in love with is Be Bold! Be Brave! ¡Se Audaz! ¡Se Valiente!
It highlights 11 history-making Latinas with wonderful illustrations and facts. The ending was my favorite part as it challenges them to get out there and be courageous. It reminds them that they are destined for greatness and that they too can make a difference!
These are such great ideas! We love photo books, too. My daughters are gifted one every birthday with photos from that year by their aunt and they treasure them.
agreed!! imagine when they’re adults looking back at the books!
