Sloths are entertaining animals. I feel like they have been given more attention in pop culture in recent years. (Partially thanks to the funny sloth character in Zootopia, and Kristen Bell’s intense love of them). Why do we find these animals so enjoyable? Is it because they exhibit the one quality that we can’t seem to grasp? Slowing down and not getting caught up in today’s speedy lifestyle? For whatever reason, we decided to celebrate these cute animals by pairing some fun sloth activities with this adorable interactive children’s book about sloths!

Classic Art Books for Kids
My daughter has always been interested in art. From a young age, she has loved watching Disney’s Little Einsteins, and frequently repeats the names of artists she has seen on there. As an art lover myself, I encourage this interest and try to share lots of books about artwork with her. I love when children’s books (or television shows) weave classic art into their storytelling, because it gets kids interested and encourages them to learn more. So today I wanted to share some of the children’s books about classic art that we have been enjoying lately!

5 Children’s Books about Grief
Grief is something that is hard for us adults to understand and deal with. So imagine how much harder it is for children to grasp. When it comes to grief, we sometimes don’t know how to discuss it with kids. This can lead to more confusion and sadness. It is so important that we teach kids that their feelings of grief and sadness are perfectly normal, and a part of life. I am always on the lookout for quality books to help me discuss big topics with my daughter. Since we have recently been dealing with some grief in our family, I have been looking for ways to discuss loss with her. Today I have gathered this list of children’s books about grief to help other families discuss the topic as well.
