In this blog post I’m sharing some of my favorite Mother’s Day books for kids. I like to rotate my classroom library each month (sometimes sooner if there’s lots going on all month). And right now I’m busy pulling out all of the Mother’s Day books to use with my students. At the bottom of this blog post you’ll also find links to different crafts and activities that you can do throughout Mother’s Day.

1. The Night Before Mother’s Day
We love the ‘Night Before’ book series, so I was really excited to add this one to my Mother’s Day classroom library. In this book, it’s the night before Mother’s Day.. and the kids are working with Dad to figure out a way to show their Mom just how much they love her! It’s a sweet story and is great to pull out for Mother’s Day.
