Ideas for some themed areas for your book fairs

SCROLL DOWN FOR PICTURES from Janice Elam and Vikki Finan's "pretty" bookfair


Also, a science table with Forensic science book and experiment card sets etc.
One of our librarians like activities from the books to do with students leading up to the bookfair and we thought about fingerprinting with the older kids to promote Forensic Science.

Fabric or Table Cloth Book Themes
Red checkered, maybe with a picnic basket cook books, cooking card sets
Horse Horse
Red Pirate or art
Black True Stories, war, pirate
Pink or purple sparkly, satin, tulle Fairy, princess, girly
Animal print Animal and dinosaur
Dinosaur or scaly bright green Dinosaur
Truck/big machines Vehicles
Young child board books

Christmas, even a string of Christmas lights Christmas themed books, gift books at Christmas events
Music Music, art, languages
Fingerprinting station, microscope Science table, promote Forensic Science with fingerprinting

Here's an idea...
Visit the fabric store when the Halloween costume fabrics are on clearance.

 Please remember that these are many ideas from which you might choose one or two or more if you're doing a large cash and carry event.
