Little Librarians and Summer Reading Programs

For Christmas the girls both received these adorable Little Librarian Kits from their Aunt Gina and her boyfriend (who happens to be a librarian at an all boys school in Michigan).  At first I will admit I was puzzled about the gift..what will they do with these?  Are they too young for them?  However, after they opened them, I will tell you, we "play" library at LEAST 1 time per week. 



Education.com named Little Librarian as one of the 15 best toys for a child in first grade in the 
Holiday Gift Guide 2011.

Disney Family Fun Magazine selected Little Librarian as a finalist for the Toy of the Year Award 2010.

Creative Child Magazine awarded Little Librarian a Seal of Excellence Award 2011.


The kit contains: 7 File Folders, 15 Book Pockets, 15 Book Cards, 4 Library Cards (you can personalize these),
4 Reading awards, 2 Bookmarks, 6 Overdue Slips and 1 Reading Journal

All you need to do is supply the BOOKS!


I love that it all fits back into the sturdy box with a handle!
It's also made it in the USA!

So many fun things to do with this kit over the Summer months when schooling is more relaxed!
  • Kids can play library together
  • Set up a library in your home for Summer Book sign out
  • Ask friends to come over and play
  • Have each member of the family become members of their library and sign out books


I can see this going on so many SUMMER BUCKET LISTS!

The price on these kits is $ 19.99

You can purchase HERE!

Be watching for a giveaway in the Fall, just in time for the holidays!

What a neat gift! Sounds like they have been having a lot of fun with it!
I love little kits that have everything you need tucked inside. And I LOVE LIBRARIES!!! What better thing than to have a library right in your own home. And run by your children!!!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
