Toddler Time 4/8

  For this week's Toddler Time, our theme was pop up and lift the flap books. I wanted to use books that were interactive. Children always love lifting the flap or seeing the items pop up in the book. And indeed, this was a success in storytime. Here are the stories we used:

Seals on the Bus by Lenny Hort

 The Very Lazy Ladybug by Isobel Finn

Who's Under that Hat by David Carter

Peek a Boo Zoo by Dian Curtis Regan

   Here are the songs we did:

Hello Everyone

Shake Shake Your Hands

Seals on the Bus (song/book)

Itsy Bitsy Spider

Lady Bug Song

Sung to:"Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"

Lady Bug, Lady Bug
she landed on my nose
I went “kerchoo!” and
off she flew!
Her body is round with
big black dots,
My mommy told me
they're called spots.
Lady Bug, Lady Bug
she looks really neat
With her bright red wings,
And tiny black feet!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Keeper in the Zoo

The keeper in the zoo,
the keeper in the zoo,
Heigh-ho! The derry-o!
The keeper in the zoo.
The keeper feeds the (bears).
The keeper feeds the (bears).
Heigh-ho. The derry-o!
The keeper feeds the (bears).

continue with monkeys, 'gators, birds, etc
