Getting Started with Poetry Teatime
Welcome to Poetry Teatime ~ Lyrics Edition
We are delighted you are joining us in experiencing a new and exciting way to introduce poetry to your children. We're learning poetry through song and the songwriters who poured their emotions into the lyrics they wrote.
Poetry Teatime can be as simple or enchanting as you want to make it. In this course, we provide the resources, decoration ideas, poetry ideas, and activities for a year of poetry teatime ideas based on great poets. We even give you ideas for a simple poetry teatime when you are short on time or energy and ideas for a more enchanting teatime when you want to make it a day of fun activities.
So, start with the lesson Introduction to Poetry in Song. Then jump in at your favorite genre of music and get started enjoying a relaxing poetry adventure with your kids!
For further Poetry Teatime instructions and inspiration, read the article and listen to the podcast below.

Early in our homeschool journey, I discovered the fabulous Julie Bogart and her Brave Writer Lifestyle. One of the activities that Julie Bogart mentions in the Brave Writer Lifestyle is Poetry Teatime. Poetry Teatime is a great way to enjoy literature while bonding with your children.
