African-American Folktales for Young Readers
African-American Folktales for Young Readers: Including Favorite Stories from Popular African and African-American Storytellers (American Storytelling) by Richard Alan Young
I love to use this book to plan activities for my daycare especially during black history month. This book is a little advance for young children under four but I make the activity fun and creative to allow them to follow the folktales. It is very important that we incorporate culture and diversity in daycares to allow children to learn that we are all different. I express to my children all the time that we are all different and some special way. Favorite African Folktales is a cause for celebration, landmark work that gathers in one volume many of Africa's most cherished folktales. This wonderful book introduces children and adults alike to the magical world of African fairy tales and creation myths, a treasure for everyone in the family. We do activities with after reading these folktales such as having my children to color a picture of Martin Luther King. Then have children draw a big picture of a cloud on the construction paper. Next, cut the cloud out and glue cotton balls all over it. Then cut out the picture of Martin Luther King. After that use the hold puncher to punch two holes at the bottom of the cloud and two holes at the top of the Martin Luther King picture.
