Activities

We've compiled a treasure trove of literacy activities and resources for you to use with your emerging reader. Although they are organized according to the group the activity was designed for, feel free to browse away!

For Everyone

Here you'll find our ever-popular printables, including games and stories, as well as literacy games you can play anywhere, great read-aloud books and books about teaching reading.

For Parents

Our activities are designed to work at home and the classroom, and are ideal for kids ages four to seven. Each is related to a specific Between the Lions episode, but you don't need to have seen the episode to play. Be sure to check out our literacy tips for encouraging your budding reader.

For Teachers

Specifically designed for teachers, our Teacher's Toolkit provides helpful episode indices for using Between the Lions to enhance reading curricula in preschool and primary grades. Cornerstones offers literacy units—developed by the National Center for Accessible Media—that are designed for teachers of students who are deaf or hard of hearing.
