Llama Llama Red Pajama Activities for Toddlers and Preschoolers

As the clock changes this upcoming weekend, it seems that this week’s Virtual Book Club for Kids Theme is right on target with it being bedtime. Whether it’s the stars and moon that children can start to see, snuggled under quilts or picking out warmer pajamas for the winter you can find lots of fun activities for your toddlers and preschoolers this week based on our Bedtime Theme and the featured book Llama Llama Red Pajama by Anna Dewdney.

This week’s featured book is a classic storybook for toddlers and preschoolers. Llama Llama Red Pajama by Anna Dewdney. It could retell many a bedtime in my household, where little ones don’t want to go to sleep because it means “missing out” and missing me. With fun illustrations and lovely rhymes, this is a firm favorite with the team behind The Virtual Book Club for Kids.

If you can’t get a copy of the book don’t worry, watch it being read below. You’ll also find some more night themed books below that we recommend reading with your preschooler.

Bedtime Songs and Finger Rhymes

In each of our activity plans this year we are including some songs and rhymes for you and your preschooler to learn, move and sing. Check them out below:
