My Simple Trick That Keeps My Classroom Library Organized [Free Download]

Shannon | No Comments

Is your daycare or preschool library area always a mess?  Mine is!  Who has time make sure the kids always put their books away nicely?!  But I also hate it when books are laying all over and end up broken.  Scroll down to see what I did about it and get your free printable!

Free “Book Return Sign” For Your Daycare Preschool Library

So what’s my solution for a messy preschool library? A book return basket!

Yes, I’ll have to put the books away myself.  But at least I can choose when to do that.

And this way, my books are protected from little “helpers” who try to fit books on the shelves.

Maybe you have a quite a few students that are all 4-5 years old.  Your kids might be capable of returning books to their proper shelves on their own.

But with the younger kids I have, I’d rather put them away myself at the end of the day (or week, let’s be honest).

When I ask the kids to put their own books away, I find my our books bent or left around the room.

I don’t keep our books organized by topic, just size.  I also keep board books separate from paperbacks so they aren’t getting bent as much.

When I started out, I quickly found that standing books on a shelf is not an option in daycare.  Rectangular bins from the dollar store work best for storing our books!

My husband and I have been together since we were 14!  We are blessed to have found each other so young and seem to have a bond that not many other couples share.  He listens to me ramble on about whatever thing I may be passionate about each week, and is always there to lift me up when I'm down.⁠

Tell me about your supporters in the comments!  I know that being a mom or teacher are HARD and stressful and we all need someone to keep us sane.
