The Best Books About Building Character and Thanksgiving
As parents, we must ensure our reading selections are age-appropriate and then strive to ask questions before, during and after the book. It may also be beneficial to have your children play or act out the plot. Bringing books to life can help make reading fun for everyone involved.
Our Reggio Emilia-inspired curriculum, Creatively Shine™, consists of fun, engaging monthly themes like “Wordly Weather” and “Music & Movement.”
The theme for November is “Building Character” and “Thanksgiving.”
