Did you know that a portion of every paper bag sold at Waterstones goes to BookTrust? BookTrust is the UK’s largest reading charity and we have been partnered for over 12 years! Reaching millions of children with books and resources to help nurture a love of reading, BookTrust provides invaluable support in making sure that every child can be a reader. Last year, Waterstones donated £214,000 to BookTrust, supported by our bag charge! Our paper bags are sturdy and reusable, so as we all aim to live our lives more sustainably, do keep in mind that when your Waterstones paper bag wears out, you can also bring it in to any store, who will replace it for you free of charge! (It’s in the fine print on the bottom 😉) #bookstagram #waterstonesnorthallerton #northallerton #bookshop #lovenorthallerton #waterstones #booktrust

📚✨ On Friday, we took part in Pyjamarama Day, a wonderful fundraising event organized by @booktrust in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland! 🛌📖 The money raised by Pyjamarama will help ensure that every child enjoys story time. We raised £180 to help make a difference: 💷 £25 can provide 15 pre-school children living in deprived communities with books and guidance to get them started on their reading journey. 📦 £50 can provide a primary school class of children with their own book parcel to take home and share. 🏫 £100 can help the @booktrust work with a struggling secondary school to support teenagers to re-engage with reading. Thank you to our Felsted Pre-Prep children who participated and donated! Together, we can help make a huge impact on children’s lives through the magic of reading. 📖❤️ #Pyjamarama #BookTrust #felsteddifference 📚

✨ Books Books Books ✨ We're very much a book-loving family here ... I'm definitely known as a book worm and sure enough I'm turning my child into one too 😆 Thinking of doing a weekly 'Book Club' post of all the books we find or read that may be educational, interactive, new releases, family favourites etc Just to share our love of books and stories but to also give our friends and followers some recommendations if they haven't already got them. I'm also on the hunt for some fun, interactive, interesting baby friendly stories if anyone has any recommendations?? **This book was gifted to me by a fellow nursery manager - she had far too many of the BookTrust packs left before she closed down her setting. I would say it is aimed at older children but the sensory aspect of the pages definitely appealed to me to give to my little girl as she loves exploring textures and flaps at the moment. My favourite part of the book is at the end where there is a scratch and sniff page on the ice cream! It smells lovely and sweet! #booktrust #booktrustbookstart #bookstartstories #giftedbook #offtothepark #interactivestory #flapbook #scratchandsniff #storytime #babybooks #childrensbooks #loveofliteracy #loveofbooks #bookworm #playaccount #playathome #playandlearn #earlyyears #11monthsold

🌿 BOOK OF THE WEEK 🌿 'Ten Little Bugs' by Mike Brownlow and Simon Rickarty This book is such a fun and engaging rhyming story which combines minibeasts and numbers to 10. With the recent combination of rain and sunny weather there have been so many minibeasts spotted during Nurturing Wild sessions. Available to buy from all bookshops. If you can, support your local independent bookshop. I purchased my copy from @beckenhambookshop If it's not in stock they can order a copy, at usually a very quick turn around. Alternatively visit your local library and borrow a copy to enjoy reading with your little ones. 💚 #nurturingwilduk #bookoftheweek #readtoyourchild #readtogether #minibeaststheme #tenlittlebugs #supportlocal #beckenhambookshop #lovebooks #booktrust #bookstart #readwithyourchild

🚀🌱Wild Book Day🐉📚 This children’s picture book is quite a novelty because it contains rhyme about the joy of reading books and the beauty of characters and illustrations within! On Wild Book Day, all the books are opened and everything spills out of them! ‘Books are adventures for you to explore, so stomp through their pages like never before’. I’d recommend this book for children who think that books are boring 😛.

London Marathon. What a journey you were. I lost my phone shortly after half way. I doubled back and spent 10-15 minutes hunting for it before realising it was in vain. I asked a volunteer to borrow a phone and rang my husband to tell him what had happened. Then my body seized right up and it took a while to get my legs turning over again - I'd got cold and stiff. The weather was cold. It was windy. Then it was hot and it was sunny. And then it was drizzly. It didn't know what it was. 800m from the end I heard a pop and felt a squelch and a sharp pain. A blister had gone and it was suddenly hard to weight bear. A scrunchy toed gait was adopted as there was no way that was defeating me. I don't have a finish line medal selfie as I lost my phone so I had to take a temporary phone selfie at my friend's house instead with the medal. Over £1800 raised for @booktrust and @samaritans. Thank you for your support and cheerleading. Sponsor page is still open for a little longer ❤️ Despite everything, I managed to get home in under six hours. Everything hurts. But I did it, despite everything. And a huge thank you to Jermaine, the volunteer who found my phone. It arrived home by post today. People are good. #choosebookshops #booksaremybag #londonmarathon #londonmarathon2024 #booktrust #indiebookshop #wonderlandbookshop

There are other books in the series, too, on Fish, Bugs, Reptiles and Mammals – all with beautiful illustrations by Britta Teckentrup.' Read the full review at the link in our bio ✨
¿ Es una biblioteca publica? No. Es una espacio en un farm hotel en las afueras de Londres, Hampshire pensado en atracciones infantiles: caballos, paseos en carro... Los ingleses siempre animan a que los Tesoros lean desde muy temprano. Estudios de la Universidad de Cambridge sugieren empezar con libros a los 3 meses y la Fundacion Book Trust lo implementa mandando libros a los recién nacidos para forjar lectores y mentes curiosas. Voilá!!!

✨ BookTrust ✨ If you're in the UK and have just had a baby or have had a baby not long ago, and you still have your health visitor come for visits and weigh-ins.....ask them about your FREE BookTrust - Bookstart pack for your baby! Most if not all boroughs will have these for families! It comes with some lovely books and some finger puppets to encourage a love of reading at an early age. There's a leaflet in there describing babies at different ages and their developmental stages when it comes to reading and language development. It also gives some examples of how you can incorporate different activities with them from sharing books with black and white images to sharing books where you can create sounds and encourage them to imitate them back. It's a lovely little starter pack of you don't know how to or where to begin when it comes to introducing books to your little one. Did I say it's FREE?? 😁 (The pack may come with different books than what I've shown) #bookstart #booktrust #freereadingpack #readingactivities #flapbooks #babybooks #earlyliteracy #fortheloveofbooks #fortheloveofreading #babybookinsta #loveofliteracy #earlyyears #healthvisitor #booktrustpack #readingwithchildren #readingwithbabies #fingerpuppets #nurseryrhymes #developmentalmilestones #babygirl #9monthsold #firsttimemum #mumlife #mumthings #parenting #ukmums #ukbabies #artscouncilengland
READING SCHOOLS 📚 Is anyone else working towards a reading schools accreditation? Reading curriculum is on our SIP this year, and we are developing a reading for enjoyment ethos in the school through the reading schools initiative. Reading Schools is a free accreditation process for all schools from the Scottish Book Trust, and is a 3 tier scheme (core, silver, gold) which you can work through to develop and sustain a reading culture in your school. I’ve been uploading all our evidence for our core level accreditation the last few weeks and I’m so pleased with our progress so far. It’s the first step in our journey, but every step counts! #scottishteacher #scottishprimaryteacher #scottishteachertribe #scottishprimaryteachersofinstagram #scottishteachersofinstagram #scottishschools #teachingreadingisfun #readingschool #readingethos #literacyrich #teachertips #teacherlife #schoollife #schoolaccreditation #schoolimprovement #booktrust
