The Vermont Center for the Book has come up with some resources to help librarians incorporate math and science ideas and concepts into their storytimes called What’s the Big Idea. How fun is that? Even if you are a math-phobe, you will be surprised to see some of the fun ideas and activities that will help develop math and science skills in young children.

The Center has kits you can purchase, but there are some great resources on the website that will help you, too. These include booklists, free articles and activities that support early learning, and a series of archived webinars about the program and ideas.
