Creative Activities to Transform Reading into Exploring

One of the most influential ways to create change in our world is through the gift of reading. How surprised would you be to know that most children throughout the world grow up without having books in their homes and schools? In a perfect world, we would cultivate an environment where every child has access to explore age-appropriate reading materials, teaching inquisitive minds to read, write, and learn more about ourselves, as well as global cultures. We're excited to share these creative activities to transform reading into exploring.

Creative Activities to Transform Reading into Exploring

Transforming reading time into hands-on exploratory activities helps learners connect stories from books to real life comprehension.

By mapping out adventures can help create visual guides which represent scenes from the book. Through story maps, an interesting activity is drawing a map following a character along their journey within the tale. Use a compass to add a hands-on level of navigation through your home, backyard, a classroom, or anywhere reading adventures lead.

We recently began reading The Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids which is a lively and informative way for children to explore the Bible. Filled with vividly illustrated images, maps, and descriptions, this page-turner is an informative read for all ages, This award-winning resource for little learners is fascinating to read and learn and an even more resourceful when paired as a learning bundle with companion products- CSB Explorer Bible for Kids and CSB Explorer Bible Scripture Memory Cards.

The Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids is ideal for extending experiences beyond the book by pretending to interview a character of interest. Imagine asking and answering questions as Noah or trotting off for a scavenger hunt as a way to enjoy outdoor exploration while on a mission inspired by your readings. Roleplay and acting out memorable scenes with props and a background designed from cardboard boxes and other recycled materials help make stories really come to life.
