Welcome to Babies to Bookworms!

Reading to kids is proven to be one of the best ways to help them develop a love of books and reading. By making reading fun and bringing books to life, I believe we can raise a generation of kids who love to read!

My name is Vicki and I am a stay at home mom to my beautiful young daughter. I am a former teacher, certified to teach birth through sixth grade, with a Masters Degree in Elementary Education with a Literacy Specialty. I have always had a love of children’s books, and reading to kids and bringing books to life for them were some of my favorite parts of teaching.

Here at Babies to Bookworms, it is my goal to inspire families to fit more reading and learning into every day. I love creating themed book lists, as well as book based learning activities, including themed recipes, gross and fine motor activities, sensory activities, and more!

You don’t have to be the “perfect” parent to give your children all kinds of learning opportunities!

From talking to them in the grocery store to making a craft together based on a favorite book, there are millions of ways to teach your kids while building precious memories. My goal for creating this site is to give parents a range of fun and easy to replicate activities that will help their kids to learn and develop a love of reading.

I hope that other moms/parents/caretakers/teachers will find the ideas on this site to be helpful and an inspiration for their own teaching ideas. I also hope parents will find a place to destress and find some tips to help them in their day to day lives. Come in and join me!
