Mabel’s family just gave her the best news ever Mabel’s family just gave her the best news ever - she gets to choose the new family pet! She selects an elephant! 🐘 Mabel is thrilled that her new pet gives big hugs, the best rides, and even has a built-in slide. But when the elephant tramples through the garden and sits on her mom, Mom says, “NOT THAT PET! Choose something SMALLER!” That’s when Mabel chooses ants. 🐜🐜🐜⁣
⁣
It isn’t long before the ants cause problems for another family member and Mabel is left to swap them out for something new. However, with each new pet comes new problems. The animals are too smelly🦨, too scary🕷, too wriggly🪱, and even too prickly🦔. That’s when Mabel comes up with an idea for the PERFECT pet. Will her family agree? The ending might just surprise you!⁣
⁣
What kind of animal would make you say, “NOT THAT PET!”?⁣

Whether you’ve been actively working on mindfuln Whether you’ve been actively working on mindfulness with your kids or looking to get started, I have a book I think you’re going to love! ⁣
⁣
Happy: A Beginner’s Guide to Mindfulness gently encourages readers to slow down, explore their emotions, and take the time to notice the beautiful world that surrounds them. The illustrations complement the poetic text beautifully and I love that there are little reminders tucked in throughout the story for students to practice mindfulness. Swipe to take a peek inside.⁣

How do you help your kids practice mindfulness?⁣

We’ve been reading this book every night for day We’ve been reading this book every night for days, so I wanted to give this one a more permanent spot here on my page. ⁣
⁣
The main character of this book is Rosie (aka Little Red Riding Hood). Her story begins as she sets off to deliver a cake to her grandma. Along the way she faces choices that might lead her to Hansel and Gretel, The Three Little Pigs, Sleeping Beauty, and even Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.⁣

Endlessly Ever After is a rhyming book that combines fairy tale stories with a choose your own adventure style of writing. Not every ending ends happily, but this one is sure to keep your kids wanting more until they discover each and every possible ending! ⁣

Do your kids prefer to read more traditional or fractured fairy tales?⁣

Squish or Save?⁣ ⁣ That’s what the reader mu Squish or Save?⁣
⁣
That’s what the reader must decide after reading Hey, Little Ant. This is one of my all-time favorite books to use for persuasive writing. After reading, kids use text evidence and write whether they want to squish the ant or save it. Then, they top off their writing with a fun kid craft.⁣
⁣
So, which team are you?:⁣
💚Team Squish⁣
💛Team Save⁣

You can find this craft along with more book activities for Hey, Little Ant in my TpT store. There are digital options included, too. Click the link in my bio or send me a DM for more info.⁣
