When you host a Book Fair, your students take home more than just books. They also gain the power to tell their own stories their own way with the Fair’s Creator Tools—the pens, journals, and hands-on activities that turn inspiration into action.
Meet the Creator Tools
Encourage students to express their wildest ideas, biggest feelings, and boldest dreams by displaying these Creator Tools alongside the stories and characters they love.
Journals for wordsmithing
By providing a space for kids to express themselves, journals become a valuable tool for self-reflection and imaginative play. These notebooks help jump-start a lifelong love of writing early for the poets, journalists, playwrights, joke-writers, and authors of the future.
Pens, markers, and notepads for artistry
A pen and blank sketchpad help a child go from head-in-the-clouds to art-on-the-page. From sketching portraits to drafting comics to designing new fashions, the playful vibe of these tools inspires creation.
Activities for hands-on discovery
Every “Aha!” moment starts with “What if…?” The science and discovery kits at the Book Fair spark kids’ innate curiosity, prompting them to ask questions, test theories, and draw conclusions about the physical world around them.
Fidgets for focus and flow
Sensory-rich fidget items that stretch, squish, and pop help keep kids’ hands occupied so their minds can roam free. Research indicates that tactile stimulation from fidget items aids in regulating emotions and promoting better focus in children.
