In Celebration of International Children’s Book Day

International Childrens Book DayInternational Children’s Book Day has been celebrated annually since 1967 as a way not only to inspire a love for books and reading, but also to draw attention to great books for children.  At Kindermusik, we celebrate – and foster! – a love of reading and wonderful books in class and at home with our exclusive Kindermusik Home Materials all throughout the year.
In honor of International Children’s book Day, here is a short list of books we love to read in the Kindermusik classroom… PLUS a few of favorite books found in the Reading Rainbow app:

And as a bonus, we also wanted to highlight a few of our favorite Kindermusik books now available on the Reading Rainbow app for free on iPad or Kindle Fire:

  • A Quieter Instrument
  • Flip-Flap, Sugar Snap!
  • Henry’s Parade

We also invite you to learn more about the music-literacy connection by downloading our Music and Reading guide  and by trying a free Kindermusik class.  Most of all, we hope you’ll cuddle with your child and a good book and enjoy celebrating International Children’s Book Day together!
