The Best Early Science Books for Kids!

I have mentioned in the past that I didn’t have the best experiences with science in school. So as an adult, I love all of the toys and science books for kids that encourage a love of science at an early age. I want my daughter to get excited about science now, so that when it comes time to learn it in school, she already has positive feelings associated with it. I was thrilled when we had the opportunity to check out two of the newest releases from Chris Ferrie, one of my favorite science authors for kids!

Girls in STEM: Picture Books & Chapter Books Starring Female Characters

Were you a fan of STEM subjects in school? Despite the fact that my parents told me that I could do anything, I remember being told by teachers at school that I couldn’t do things because I was a girl. Because of this, it means even more to me that I surround my daughter with some of the amazing children’s books about girls in STEM, so that she won’t be lead to believe that “it’s only for the boys”. I love that there are so many amazing resources available now to get kids interested in science, computing and engineering from an early age.

Empowering Board Books for Girls & Feminists!

I love books that encourage young girls to be strong, confident women. My parents raised me and my sister to believe that we could do anything that we set our minds to.

I want to raise my daughter to be a strong and confident woman as well, so I am always on the lookout for great books that feature strong female characters and inspire her to be proud of who she is. Today I decided to gather a list of the best empowering board books for girls and young feminists so you can build a library for your strong, confident little one.
