At The Book Vine, we review every children's picture book published—about 3,000 a year—and keep narrowing our list of favorites until we get to those most worthy of being featured in our selections.
Our high-quality book selection supports your mission in the classroom and in your schools.
We specialize in board books for infants, toddlers, and twos, and in the best read-aloud titles for early childhood on all subjects.
KOMPAN – Let's play
Founded in 1970, KOMPAN, headquartered in Odense, Denmark, is the world's leading manufacturer of playground equipment, multisport and outdoor fitness facilities and park furniture.
With more than 50 years of experience, the company designs, manufactures and markets a wide range of high-quality products. These products are used in public playgrounds, residential areas, schools, childcare centers, leisure facilities and retail outlets in more than 80 countries.
Based on the results of the company's own Play Institute, playground concepts are developed that offer a unique play experience for all age groups, while also inspiring inclusive play. The KOMPAN Design Studio offers creative solutions and customized playground equipment for all individual needs and environments. The company holds a GSA contract to provide reliable and efficient services.
Lakeshore has grown from that first brick-and-mortar store to a leading developer and retailer of top-quality classroom furniture and materials for early childhood programs, elementary schools and homes. Plus, we now offer a range of furniture options to support middle school and high school learning spaces.
Today, we have a thriving e-commerce business, a national sales division with over 80 local reps around the country, multiple catalogs and 60+ retail locations to serve our customers. We attribute our growth to the more than 3,500 people who make up our team—a dynamic mix of veteran employees plus new talent. The combined efforts of our people allow us to reach for new heights—as we continue to experiment and grow. For example, we’ve expanded our export market, opened offices in Asia and built a second distribution center in Midway, Kentucky—increasing our inventory space to 2.4 million square feet.
We also continue to reinvent ourselves and explore new areas. For example, we’ve introduced Flex-Space Furniture, Flex-Space Jr.® Furniture and Engage Modular Furniture to meet the needs of 21st-century classrooms. We also launched Design, Delivery & Installation by Lakeshore—our end-to-end service for bringing learning spaces to life. And to help educators meet specific needs, our Custom Solutions team works hand in hand with districts and nonprofits to create custom learning materials to support the needs of all learners.
Opening Doors to Lifelong Learning
We believe that all children deserve a nurturing, engaging, and high-quality learning environment designed to support their unique needs throughout the critical, formative years.
At Teaching Strategies, we help early childhood educators build this environment and provide the foundation for success for every child by connecting teachers, children, and families to inspired teaching and learning experiences, informative data, and stronger partnerships through the leading early learning platform and solutions.
The Discovery Source creates opportunities and solutions for early childhood educators to transform the way they support children and families in the most critical years of childhood development – from birth through third-grade.
We understand the unique challenges and opportunities in supporting the social-emotional development of our youngest learners; and strive to provide innovative, effective, and affordable solutions to strengthen relationships, raise quality, improve outcomes, and ensure each and every child has a fair start and solid foundation for future success.
