Join Our Summer Book Club

There's something special about getting lost in your favorite stories under a shady tree. This summer we want to introduce you to some of our favorite picture books, both old and new. We are so excited to announce our Summer Book Club!

Each week we will host an Instagram Live read-a-long with CJ or Jes and share a craft to go along with each book. The perfect time to snuggle up with your little one and get some time together before they run outside into the wide summer!

We hope you can join us on Wednesdays at 2 PM EST, but you can catch the replay in our highlights if you miss it.
