20 Books About Autism for Kids

We are a family of readers and we absolutely love having books in our house. I have a bookshelf in practically every room of the house and books are located nearly everywhere. To help my neurotypical child understand, we turned to books about autism. It’s also given me some thought about eventually writing my own book about autism. But, not just yet. For now, we will rely on this list and supplement as we go. I’ve posted my Top 10 Books for Parents of Autistic Children and I’m working on a post specifically for parents of girls on the spectrum. But today I wanted to share a list of books about autism for kids. If you have children who are not on the spectrum, they may not…

We are a family that loves books. And we definitely have our favorite authors and non-seasonal favorites but we also have plenty of holiday and seasonal reads. Around this time of the year, we love to explore apples and pumpkins. Our home library grows a little bit year by year and here are just a few of our favorite pumpkin books for toddlers and preschoolers. We will also be sure to integrate a few of these books into our toddler friendly pumpkin activities. And of course, they’ll come in handy when we start our Halloween stuff! I tried to pick out books that were both general pumpkin themed and some that are more Halloween. Halloween is one of those holidays that I want to approach…

We love to celebrate holidays and to help with holiday celebrations, I love a good variety of books. Books are a staple part of our home to begin with, so I want to start sharing a weekly book list with you. Usually they’ll be books for toddlers and preschoolers, but I’ll also have a few book lists for adults as well. This week, we’re getting ready for Thanksgiving with these fun 25 Thanksgiving books for toddlers and preschoolers. Please note that some of these are religious in nature, but for the most part they’re secular based. In the future, I will have book lists that are Christian focused. I have a lot of ideas for these lists though most of them are based on whatever…

We are happy to be participating in Booking Across the USA and the author that we chose to cover is Sandra Boynton. She hails from New Jersey so that’s the state that we’re representing even though we live in New York. There are several reasons that we chose Sandra Boynton and we’ll also have a list of our favorite books and a mini printable pack for you. Sandra Boynton was a favorite of mine as a child- I loved But Not The Hippopotamus and I remember having a few stuffed Boynton animals (an elephant for me and a hippo for my mom). So the fact that I can now share this love of Boynton books with Squeaker is great. About Sandra Boynton Sandra Boynton was…

Books About St. Patrick’s Day for Kids

To keep with the St. Patrick’s Day theme (after covering recipes and crafts) or if you’re planning on studying Ireland, here are 20+ books about St. Patrick’s Day for kids. I’ve also included a few that aren’t St. Patrick’s Day specific, but are related to Ireland and/or Irish culture. When we cover St. Patrick’s Day in Tot School or Homeschool Preschool (or beyond), I intend to make it more of an Ireland and Irish Culture theme rather than just St. Patrick’s Day. This book list is mostly for younger children though I’ll also include a book list for older children in the future- hopefully before next year! The Night Before St. Patrick’s Day Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Curious George tabbed board book There Was an…

14 Days of Valentines will resume on Saturday as I want to get to a few other things before that. Plus, I’m still working on a few things for my 14 Days of Valentines series, so I want to make sure that I have all of that together before we delve back in. In the meanwhile, February is a special month. Aside from being my birth month, there are quite a few special things about February that we’re going to cover this week. For example, did you know that February is National Children’s Dental Health Month here in the United States? With all of the sweets being consumed this month for Valentine’s Day, plus the runoff from Christmas (we still have candy canes laying around);…
