In this blog post today I’m sharing some camping picture books for kids.. These are books that my students have LOVED over the years.. And now I hope I can help build your collection of camping picture books too!
I love to switch out our book library each month and add in new books for themes, events and celebrations that we are working on. Right now I am busy adding some camping books to our library. So it felt like the perfect time to create this blog post.
