In Storybook Village, books were brought to life through interactive booths, engaging activities, and captivating story time! All students and young children who visited the Village, walked with free books and goodies to continue the magic at home. This year’s literacy space also included Storybook Garden – a quiet, inviting, and unique ability-friendly area intended to serve a smaller set of children, who may get overwhelmed and need a more supportive space to engage in during Children’s Day at the Capitol.

A special thanks to our 2025 Storybook Village Featured Partner, the Association of Early Learning Coalitions, for making this beloved event possible.

We also want to recognize our 2025 Local Activities Partners—FINACIOUS, Help Me Grow^® Florida, and the Florida Department of Education/Division of Early Learning. Thank you for your support in creating this enchanting space for young readers! Thank you as well to our amazing network of partners who hosted activities, shared resources, gave away free books, and more!
