Book Fair Workshop

Book fairs often occur during school hours, but this isn't always the case. A book fair can also draw students and parents back into the school building after hours.

If you're unfamiliar, a book fair is when you set up part of the school as a makeshift book store where new and donated books are available to students for low prices. They can browse and pick out some exciting new reading options, which they can even begin to dive into at the event itself.

Book publishers often donate or discount books for sale at these types of events. Plus, the excitement around this after-hours school event idea often pushes children to feel more excited about reading.

This is a great fundraising event as well, as the proceeds from the book fair can be funneled into whatever area of the school needs some extra funds.
