ELEMENT IDEAS
1. THEMES
We can have themes of different Genres of books like Fantasy, Adventure,
Crime, Thriller, Animation, etc and we can have representatives of each Genre
standing in one corner of the place & intriguing the children to come & listen
to their story & come participate in their personal book giving agendas
2. HUMAN
LIBRARY
Human Library is a concept in which
instead of books in a library we have
humans saying their story, whatever
story they want to share. So we can
have a place in the event where the
children are asked to choose a theme
under which a human is standing & can
either share his own story or ask the
human of that particular theme to
share his story and then receive a book
in return.
3.COMPETITION
We can have a prize winning competition in which the children are given
stationery or books in the end of a competition in which they had a quiz as
to guess the characters of the books or books itself through placards that we
have made.
4. INTERVIEWS
We can integrate short interviews of the parents of what they think about this
whole idea or interviews with the children of how they feel after receiving books
that they don’t have to know verbatim and can just read it like stories and expand
their imagination.
