  • Kenard Pak has added another book to his collection!⁣ ⁣ In his newest, Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring, a child, and his pup go out for an evening winter walk. As they walk, the child greets what he sees along the way… snow, a frozen pond, trees, footprints. Everything responds back with a hello and describes what they are currently experiencing in the winter season. The following day, the pair heads back out for a walk and witness the revitalizing shift from winter to spring. They greet the colorful nature and waking animals who respond with a hello, and share in the excitement of the signs of spring.⁣ ⁣ We love that this story inspires us to get outside, slow down, and be observant of the natural world around us.⁣ ⁣ Learn more about our pics for March book of the month via the link in our bio!⁣ ⁣ #WinterKids #kidsbooks #kidlit #raisingreaders #kidsbookswelove #kidsbookshelf #kidsbookslove #kidsbooksofinstagram #kidsbookstagram #childrensbookstagram #childrensbookseries #childrensbooksofinstagram #childrensbooksmatter #kidsreading #books #booksforkids #getkidsreading #readingisfun #readingisfundamental #readingfun #raisingareader #readreadread #picturebooks #picturebook #earlylearners #bookforkids #bookstagramcommunity
  • "...it was important for our students to participate in the Winter Games to introduce students to the many options available to them and their families during the winter months. It was a good way to reinforce healthy habits and the need to keep active. It was also beneficial for our students and families to realize the many local resources available to them through the winter months." -Nancy Stover, Principal, Prescott Memorial School⁣ ⁣ Learn more about the impact of the WinterKids Winter Games from the top 3 winning schools for 2020 over on the WinterKids Blog (link in bio).⁣ ⁣ #WinterKids #WKWinterGames #mainepublichealth #maineschools #mainecommunities #mainelife #mainelifestyle #winterinmaine #maineliving #207isgreat #maineteacher #educators #physicaleducation #outdooreducation #healtheducation #teachertips #teachertalk #teachersofthegram #teacherfun #teacherideas #teacherinspiration #goodtimesoutside #outdoorfamilies #kidsoutside #getkidsoutside #getkidsoutdoors #activekidsarehappykids #activekidsarehealthykids #healthykidscommunity #healthykidsarehappykids
