A new season is a perfect opportunity to refresh your bookshelf. These cute children’s books for spring are full of topics that fit naturally with the transition from winter to spring. I love when we can tie books in with the world around us!
Bugs, worms, butterflies, and flowers are all perfect topics to read about in books for spring.
Children are naturally curious and are observing these signs of spring while playing outside. They might even be inspired to go on a nature walk or watch butterflies develop after reading these cute spring stories.
At first it might seem like picture books are just for young kids. I don’t think that is true though.
Kids of all ages can appreciate good books. My kids are now 10 and 13 and I still read picture books to them. I’m going to read to them for as long as they will let me.
Gather up your little ones, snuggle up on the couch, and dive into these books for spring.

Because a Little Bug Went Ka-choo! by Rosetta Stone

This cute picture book is about how little actions can have a big impact. A little bug sneezes and triggers all sorts of silly events.
The book reminded me of something Dr. Seuss would write . . . and then I learned that Rosetta Stone was a pen name for Theodor Geisel – a.k.a. Dr. Seuss.

Berry picking is a classic spring time activity. My family tries to go every year. We are fortunate that there is a strawberry patch just around the corner from our house so we can go just about every week.
This book is a great choice to read before berry picking – or even just before enjoying a bowl of juicy berries!
