Free Online Children's Books

April 13th 2009 02:26
As an expat abroad, I am always searching for new stories to share with my daughter.

The Children's Library is a non-profit organisation offering a wide variety of free paper books to be read online including stories such as Axle The Freeway Cat, Blinky Bill, Cinderella and Mother Goose.


The International Children's Digital Library Foundation's goal is to build a collection of books that represents outstanding historical and contemporary books from throughout the world.

Little Mermaid Week

April 9th 2009 02:07
We are taking a theme from one of my daughter's books and are basing activities and stories throughout the week on the theme of her choice. Her choice this week - The Little Mermaid - apt for someone who currently wants to be a mermaid when she grows up!


Doing a quick search on the internet so far we have uncovered sheet music and lyrics for a number of the tracks including Part of Your World and Under The Sea.

We have some pretty stationery and bookmarks to create and use. We also have some great pictures to colour and paint as well as some great underwater dot to dot activities.

We also have a Little Mermaid Door Hanger to print and a photo frame to create!

We are going to do some bubble blowing and make a paper plate fish and tube octopus to stick on our mermaid wall.

If left to my own devices, our week wouldn't be as half as fun!

Feel free to submit any other suggestions or sites as no doubt this will be a recurring theme!
