Celebrate Special Days in 2024



More on this topic in a future post - read more here as an introduction

My local magazine Tawny Frogmouth published a list of days to celebrate in 2024. I picked out a few and added one picture book to match. I have added links to my friend Kinderbookswitheverything blog page because her blog is an outstanding resource for teachers. Her posts celebrate all sorts of days throughout the year, and she has been blogging since 2009! This post can only touch the edges of the wealth of material you will discover when you explore Kinderbookswitheverything.
