Books
Ok, I need some help. So, I'm going to write a grant proposal to Target for money for Stone House to use to make literacy bags. I was not familiar with the concept of literacy bags until my teacher, Carrie Ficke, asked us to write what we would put in one during class, and none of us (early childhood grad students) had hear of them. What they are is a bag with a book and a few different activities, toys, recipes, songs etc. that go along with the book. Teachers can use them, but mostly, parents can check them out to take home for their kids to use. I'm planning to make a bunch of them. Some for infants/toddlers 0-3, and some for preschoolers 3-5.
So, can you guys think of awesome books from your childhood? I need some great ones... and if you have ideas for things to go with them, that would be cool, too.
