Today for storytime, we had box day. I think using props as part of the storytime is extremely important to reinforce what we are talking about. All of the books that I used were about boxes and the many wonderful things you can do with a box. This week, I collected (with the help of some wonderful staff members - Lidia, Mason) many boxes of all different sizes. You could tell during storytime that the kids were itching to get in the boxes. Halfway through the storytime, I let the kids play in the boxes. They loved it. I have no doubt that they will never look at a box in the same way again.

Could you explain more how you did your "box" storytime? What stories did you use?
