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!
