The last week of April has been crowned National Princess Week! Even though we are all quarantined at home, that’s no reason to not celebrate. Castle-building, tiaras, dress up, crafts, and tea parties are all fun activities that you can do safely from home. There are plenty of truly magical books about princesses to share together. You can also download your favorite Disney soundtracks to sing along with on Hoopla!
