The weather is starting to feel more like autumn, and we’ve spent some time indoors with the rain and gale force winds. Times like these are perfect for cuddling up together and diving into a book! While looking through the 136 ideas submitted last week on Mom’s Library where I featured a Focus on Phonics I was drawn to all the of great children’s books shared and the activities that went with them.
