Spring brings so many different opportunities to incorporate books into children’s learning. My students (and my children too) always love Easter books. I mean, who doesn’t love a cute little bunny?! Even if you cannot teach the story of Easter, these are an alternative that can get students into the holiday, without bringing in the religious aspect of it. Here are our top picks for 12 favorite Easter Books for little learners!
Reading some of these Children’s Easter Books to your little ones is a great way to really get everyone excited about the upcoming holiday. Even at a young age, children can become enthralled with the stories of Easter. These are all excellent choices to help encourage their love of reading and story time.
