Virtual Book Club for Kids Featured Book Love Monster
We have included Amazon links to the books we recommend. If you purchase via the books we may earn a small commission.
This week's teacher recommended featured book is Love Monster by Rachel Bright. In this story the "Monster" from the story is different from everyone else in his world. He tries to find someone similar and hunts to find the one to love.
This story is great to read to encourage children not to give up and to continue to search and do what they wanting to achieve. We love the illustrations and it's great to work on some language skills as the monster hunts for someone to love.

Celebrate Valentine's Day with your Preschooler this week with our 5 simple planned activities to do together.
This week’s sensory activity is a red and pink themed sensory bin that you can keep up all week.
If you don’t wish to use coloured rice in the bin then instead you could add more of the other fillers.
We’re feeding the Love Monster this week with this fun alphabet activity for Valentine’s week with your preschooler.
You can adapt this easily to the ability of your child.
Maybe you are working on upper and lower case letters in which case find the pair and feed the monster.
Or beginning sounds – i.e. “Find the letter that Monster begins with”.
Getting active and learning at the same time is great for preschoolers and our heart themed math activity this week is easy to set up and works on counting and number recognition.
Easy Frozen Heart Science Activity for Toddlers and Preschoolers
The science is some Frozen Heart Ice Excavation perfect if you have cold temperatures and have been following our plans this winter.
