Welcome, friends, to Day 5 of my BUSY BUILDERS, BUSY WEEK! Book Bash.
In my latest book, each day of the week features a colorful cast of animal characters and a different construction activity as the digging, dumping and ‘dozing lead up to one stupendous surprise!
So, it seemed only fitting that for a days-of-the-week book I celebrate with a week-long bash including –
TODAY!
Thursday! Fill it day! Build it, nail it, drill it day.
This is the day for the little busy builders in your life. Get out the blocks, boxes, toothpicks, marshmallows – all your favorite “construction” materials! – and build a tower, a house, a skyscraper, a bridge … or maybe even a PLAYGROUND.
You can find fun construction ideas on the web –https://www.pinterest.com/explore/construction-theme-preschool/
And even in my Curriculum Guide and Storytime Kit –
