🕯️ What’s Inside the October Read & Learn Box?

✔️ Book of the Month: The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt
This tender and charming story follows a ghost who feels different because he’s made of a quilt instead of a sheet. Through his journey, children explore themes of individuality, self-acceptance, and celebrating what makes us unique. A perfect cozy read for the Halloween season!

✔️ Reading Comprehension Activity: Little Ghost Finger Puppet
Created by small business owner, Linda, from Floating Down the River, this handcrafted ghost puppet makes story retelling and imaginative play come alive.

✔️ Arts & Craft + STEM: DIY Shadow Puppets
Use the included materials to create your own Halloween puppets—perfect for storytelling, pretend-play fun, and shadowy adventures after dark.

✔️ STEM + Fine Motor: Beginner Sewing Kit
Practice early sewing skills with an embroidery hoop, monk cloth, three felt lacing pieces, a safe needle, and four yarn colors. Encourages creativity, patience, and fine motor development.

✔️ Creative Exploration: Quilt Block Craft
Arrange real fabric pieces into patterns and shapes to design your own spooky quilt square. A playful introduction to geometry, sequencing, and design.

✔️ Social-Emotional & Creativity: Ghost Hand Puppet
Decorate a cloth puppet with markers to bring your own ghost—or a silly spooky creature—to life. A fun way to explore feelings and storytelling.
