Opening Song: Hello, how are you?
I wasn't thinking when I chose this that we might have kids in our story time group who don't have mothers, making the refrain, "A [fill in animal here] has a mother just like me and you!" somewhat annoying, but no one complained. And they loved all the animals, especially the kangaroo!
Song: Cuddly Koalas
This is such a great song - simple, fun, and easy to learn, but not boring if it's your 100th time singing it.
Book: What Does Baby Say? by Begin Smart Books (2008)
This is a basic lift-the-flap book, about what baby says when she sees cookies, juice, mommy's purse, and more. They absolutely loved this one - lots of little eyes were just absolutely glued to the book!
Song: Shake My Sillies Out
Song: I'm a Little Teapot
Flannel Board Rhyme: Three Melting Popsicles
Stay tuned - this rhyme will be featured in my Flannel Friday post this week!
Song: The Wheels on the Bus (Raffi version)
This is my compromise. I couldn't take another week of my usual version of Wheels on the Bus, which is almost 4 minutes long, so I gave this one a try, using photographs I printed out to cue each verse. I think it was a success.
Song: ABCD Medley
Song: One, Two, I Love You (Numbers Are Our Friends)
During session three, the CD started to skip, and I had to sing this song without the music. I did just fine, but it shows why it's really important to know your songs well!
Song: Chickadee
Song: Monkeys on the Bed (session 3 only, by request)
A little girl who drew me a picture last week asked if we could do this one, and I couldn't say no.
Goodbye Song: Skinnamarink
