Create Your Own "Storywalk" Experience
By Kayla • April 3, 2018
Created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, Vermont, in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library and the Vermont Bicycle and Pedestrian Coalition, The Storywalk Project™ attempts to incorporate both literacy and exercise! While there may be one in your area {be sure to check the website to find out!}, you may just have to create your own storywalk experience. Here's how...
- Find an old copy of your kiddos favorite book.
- Separate the pages, mounting each one onto a piece of colored construction paper then laminate them or place them into plastic document protectors.
- Plan a 'hiking route' around your playground and schoolyard, then post the pages of the book at strategic check points on the route.
- Basking in the sunshine and getting some much needed exercise, take your kiddos on a storywalk - stopping at each check point to find out what happens next in the story!
This is a fantastic idea and one we're sure your preschoolers will love! Be sure to visit The Storywalk Project™ website -who knows, you just might be instrumental in starting a new tradition for families in the community this summer!
