Planning Ideas for Your Usborne Preschool Book Fair

Plan a Family Event!

Family events are a wonderful opportunity to provide learning for the whole family, while significantly increasing the success of your book fair!  We'll help you with the planning!  Our wide selection of picture books, activity books, kid kits, and nonfiction titles makes it easy to plan an educational and fun evening or weekend afternoon for families. 

Here are some ideas to get you started:

Set up stations in each classroom with themes that incorporate an Usborne Book with extension activities related to the book.

There's A Mouse About the House

Read one of our best-loved preschool titles, then make a mouse finger puppet with paper, scissors, tape, and a piece of thread.

The Butterfly

Share this beautifully illustrated picture books full of factual information, then make bright butterflies with tissue paper and glue.

On the Seashore

Explore the wonderful natural treasures of the sea with another in our picture book series, then color pictures downloaded from the Usborne-Quicklinks website of the many creatures and treasures from the book.

Adventures Around the World

Take an adventure to Mexico, Spain, France, Japan, England, Australia, Kenya, Germany, Brazil, or Canada using the resources and books from our Adventures Around the World program!

Volcanoes Kid Kit

Create a hands-on learning experience and discover volcanoes with our kid kit that comes complete with a vinyl volcano model, instructions, and "lava orange" food coloring tablets!

Be sure to consider a Reach for the Stars Reading Readiness Program during the weeks preceding your book fair event!  A book fair is a perfect way to end your Reach for the Stars event!  Children purchase their books with pledge money earned during the reading readiness program, and additional parent purchases increase the books earned by the school.
