Step 1
Look for books that are on sale! Most book stores have a bargain book section that have great children's books for lower costs.
-
Step 2
Gently used children's books are also a great way to save money! Many bookstores have gently used books that are less than half the original cost. Most of them are in great condition and have very limited wear.
-
Step 3
Trade books with friends and family members. Once a month trade a basket of books with your friends or a family member. That way both of your kids get exposure to new books without the cost.
-
Step 4
Purchase books through your child's preschool or daycare. Many preschools and daycares have book clubs that offer great books at very low prices. You can also order books online through book clubs at lower prices.

Step 5
Use your local library. Granted you can't keep library books forever but it does allow you to offer your child a wide variety of books at NO cost.
