Today Is A Me Day


Today Is A Me Day”, by E.V. Starkey & Kristiina Haapalainen with illustrations by Sami Vähä aho



If you could spend a day doing whatever you wanted how would you choose to fill it?” 🌈✨



“Today Is A Me Day” is a heartwarming childrens book that celebrates the joy of indulging in the things that bring happiness. The story follows a girl who decides to take a break from her tasks to engage in activities that bring her delight and satisfaction.



The theme of self care is skillfully integrated throughout the narrative. The girls exploration of activities emphasizes the significance of setting aside time for oneself. Whether playing with her toys or appreciating natures beauty she discovers what truly fills her heart with joy.



I was truly charmed by this idea! The emphasis on self care and valuing ones happiness is incredibly important for readers. It imparts the message that its perfectly acceptable to prioritize oneself at times and carve out moments, for self discovery and personal development.



This is a reminder that taking care of yourself can vary from person, to person. Whether its enjoying a book getting creative with painting or simply allowing yourself to rest self care should always be a priority. Without moments of relaxation and sources of inspiration everything else can feel overwhelming.



This delightful book stands out in the realm of childrens literature by spreading a message that is not commonly found in stories for readers. It serves as a tool, for teaching children about the significance of self care and the happiness that comes from engaging in activities that bring them joy. To all teacher out there who is on Summer Vacation… this book is for you!!!
