Relieve Boredom
A kid's book club can relieve boredom two ways. First if offers a fun weekly or monthly activity to look forward to and second, it is a great incentive to read stories that jump start their imaginations.
To make this easier team up with a friend.
- Send out invitations that include the title of the first book
- Include a weekly (monthly) meet time
- Before each club meeting, have all the kids read the same book.
- During the meeting they can share thoughts on the book as well as have some snacks.
To get things started, the host child might want to make a list of five (or so) discussion questions.
What is your favorite part? Who was the best character? or if the readers are younger, you can read aloud while they listen or draw along to the story.
Or you can pick a loose theme for the books; such as all wintertime stories, or books from a favorite series.
Have the children share what book they read and their thoughts on the story.
