Event and Activity
Suggestions
Make Your Own Busytown!
Set up Busytown stations around
the room. There should be a firehouse, school,
airport, library, police station, post office, etc.
Hand out pieces of paper to the children and have
them visit each station to learn the words
associated with it. Each time they visit a station,
they should receive a stamp, sticker, or signature
on their piece of paper. Once they have visited each
station, hand out the sticker giveaways.
Busy Words!
During storytime, read Richard Scarry’s
Best Little Word Book Ever. Encourage the
children to call out each word as you
point to the pictures.
