Read to Someone Problem Solved

My kids love to choose Read to Someone during Daily 5.  The problem occurs when there's not a someone to read to, because all the other someones have made different choices.  That's when these guys come in handy. 




My mom bought lots of animal hand puppets for me years ago.  They live in my library as you see below.


There's not a someone available to read to?  Problem solved!  They can find one here, and they're the best of listeners too.  


Pin It!

  1. We have lots of read to someone buddies like this...they are mostly from Build-a-Bear. I really really like your storage solution!

  2. Tammy, I love the hominess of your library. I decided to see if you had other pictures of your classroom. I don't know how I missed those posts. I love your borders and the picture frames. Lyn

    1. Lyn, thank you for checking out my room. It's nothing too fancy, but I like that you think it's homey.

  3. Hi Tammy,

    I used to have a basket of stuffed animals to use as reading buddies. I think I'll do that again. Your stuffed critters are so cute!

  5. Your corner looks so cozy and inviting! This is a great idea. I have some stuffed animals I could share, but I need to get one of those cute organizers you have them in! :)

  6. We have two baskets of "buddies" and puppets. I like how you have yours displayed! My kiddos forget that ours are available. :-)

    1. Chrissy, I've found it helpful to keep them out and about. Kids then remember to use them. :)
