    DIY Carnaval Bookshelves Decoration

    Decorate your kids bookshelves for Carnaval with these easy to make clown crafts.

    Are you ready for Carnaval?

    Yesterday, we went to visit Niko’s future school and I was amazed by their beautiful Carnaval decorations. Carnaval is indeed a big event here. Even kids get to have a Carnaval vacation for a week.

    I was inspired to decorate our bookshelves for the Carnaval and re-purposed our clown crafts as decorations. I’ve been doing monthly book rotation since December and it really helps the kids focus on certain books as well as getting excited when I put out different ones.

    Our activity books from Image Books and Hey Reader fits perfectly with our Carnaval theme.

    Let’s decorate for the Carnaval:

    My name is Dove. I live in an enchanted forest at the end of a rainbow. I have a little window in my room where I can see unicorns playing in the grass field at day and magical fairies dancing under the silvery moon at night. I love creating things with my kids and adding a touch of magic to their playtime.
