Story Sprouts Bookshelf

🌱📚 Story Sprouts is back!

It’s been a little while… life has been busy and Story Sprouts has taken a bit of a pause while I found my feet with work and family life.

But today I’m back out with the bookstall and it feels like the perfect time to start sharing our love of books again. 💕

I’ll be bringing you some of my favourite children’s books, ideas for supporting little learners at home and of course plenty of bookish inspiration for your Story Sprouts!

If you’ve been here since the beginning, thank you for sticking around. And if you’re new here — welcome! 🌱

I couldn’t have asked for a lovelier birthday — stories, sleepy little helpers and lots of smiles at The Wonder Wood.🌿

Days like this remind me why I started Story Sprouts Bookshelf — books, laughter and a little bit of real life all mixed together. 💕

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and made it extra special!

🌿 I’m Back! 🌿

It’s been a little quiet on here since the summer holidays — life has been full of big changes!
After maternity leave, I returned to the classroom in September, to my previous Reception teacher role, and it’s taken a little while to find my rhythm again. 💚

I absolutely loved spending time with my books while I was off, and now I’m learning how to balance school life, family life, and continuing to grow Story Sprouts Bookshelf — school definitely won this half term! 😅

But… half term is here, and I’m super excited to be back out and about sharing stories again! 📚✨

📍 Wednesday 29th October, 9:30–1:30 – I’ll be at The Wonder Wood (a new venue for me, though one of our favourite places to visit as a family!)
📍 Saturday 1st November, 8:00–10:30 – Dereham Leisure Centre is having me back with my pop-up book stall!

To start the festive build up, I’ve got loads of fabulous Christmas books, festive activities, and even advent calendars ready to go — perfect for little readers and gift givers alike. 🎄🎁
