Our tonies Library Become A NEW Neighborhood In Our Library!

 

This year, tonies® have become a special part of our library. 

We have been figuring out this exciting new addition as we go and it's been so much fun! 

 

One of the first things was figuring out how I was going to store and share the books that go along with our Tonieboxes and Tonie characters. First, I bought a basket and put it by the three Toniebox storage houses that I hung in our library. 

Most of the Tonie characters that we have so far are book characters from these books. 

I got them in Follett Titlewave, 

along with the book sets that go along with the Tonie characters. 

As we put these into our library, I also created stickers for our tonies® and book bundles.  

You can read all about them and get the template for the stickers here. 

Over the last week, we made a few adjustments to our library neighbors to make room on the shelves for our tonies library, and extra Tonieboxes and characters. 

I made a poster in Canva, put it in a frame, and popped up the books around it.  

You can find this Canva poster here. 

We have plenty of room to grow our tonies collection and expand the program in exciting ways. I love that teachers will also be able to check out Tonie boxes, characters, and books to use in their classrooms, giving students even more opportunities to enjoy stories and listening experiences throughout the school!

In an upcoming post, I am going to share the steps we have taken so far to add tonies to our library. 

You can find out even more about tonies® here on Follett Content, friends.

You've Been Book'd With Books To Celebrate Thanksgiving and Thankfulness!

 

It's November and Thanksgiving is at the end of this month.

To honor this special holiday and celebrate the spirit of thankfulness, I’ve gathered a collection of 21 wonderful books to share with our readers. Each story highlights themes of gratitude, family, traditions, friendship, and the joy of coming together.

From heartwarming picture books to inspiring stories that spark meaningful conversations, these titles invite us to reflect on what we’re thankful for and how we can spread kindness in our own lives. They’re perfect for sharing at home, in the classroom, or in the library to spark discussions about the true meaning of Thanksgiving.
