Bedtime "Bugs" & Buds
As the sun stays out a little longer, wind down with stories that celebrate the season's awakening.
The Activity: Flashlight Reading. Grab a cozy blanket and head to a "secret garden" (a tent made of sheets!) with a flashlight. Read spring classics like:
• The Very Hungry Caterpillar (Eric Carle)
• Planting a Rainbow (Lois Ehlert)
• Waiting for Wings (Lois Ehlert)
Ask your child: "If you were a tiny seed sleeping in the dirt, what kind of flower would you want to wake up as?" 🌸
