Cabin Fever Kids
Cabin Fever Kids is a digital book featuring fun and fascinating questions based on children’s literature, designed for parents and teachers looking to get kids to think more deeply about life’s big issues. The project began as a response to COVID-19 and the resulting school closures, with the aim of helping with home learning or even bedtime reading. The book contains links to a reading of a beloved children’s book, along with open-ended questions about the story for children to discuss—questions rooted in philosophy, critical thinking, sociology, psychology, and other disciplines.
