I mean… I went a little wild this year buys new books for Easter, but it’s ok, because I think I have rounded up some of the very best Easter books for literacy based speech therapy for your itty bitties.
In going through these Easter books for speech I realized that Easter is an AMAZING time to learn about spatial concepts. Hidden eggs galore!
I’ll link each book in my Amazon Storefront and give you a quick rundown of the goals I plan to target with each one!
Easter Books for Preschool Speech
These books are short, sweet, and to the point. Most don’t contain any sort of story line but are great for your itty bitties just starting to stand to a story for short periods of time.
- There Was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Chick: Seasonal Vocabulary, MLU expansion
- Happy Easter Pout Pout Fish: spatial concepts, attending to a story, “where” questions
- Llama Llama Easter Egg: spatial concepts, attending to a story, where questions, seasonal vocabulary, colors
- My Easter Egg Hunt: spatial concepts, animals, where questions
- Happy Easter, Mouse!: colors, spatial concepts
Easter Books for Kindergarten
These books can be read in one session while still saving time for extension activities. They contain a story line and are great for WH questions and story sequencing.
- How to Catch the Easter Bunny: inferencing, WH questions, sequencing, retelling
- The Night Before Easter: Sequencing, WH questions, Easter traditions
- HIppity Skippity Easter: predictions and inferencing, helping others
- Ducks Easter Egg Hunt: WH questions, sequencing, story grammar, retelling

Easter Books for Elementary
These books might take more than one session to read. They are great for groups that have the attention span to pick apart a text.
