Baby Storytime
It was a dreadfully cold and windy morning but my goodness, lots of lovely babies makes everything better! It was wonderful to see you all!
First we read...

...and shared thiese fun little songs:
Bouncing We Will Go from Jbrary
A bouncing we will go
A bouncing we will go,
Hi ho the derry o
A bouncing we will go
Repeat with : A rocking we will go... A tickling we will go...
Bumping Up and Down in My Little Red Wagon from Jbrary
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon Won't you be my darling
Repeat with leaning to the side, don’t stand up or you might tip over
There Are Bubbles In the Air from Jbrary
There are bubbles in the air, in the air (x2)
There are bubbles in the air, there are bubbles everywhere
There are bubbles in the air, in the air.
There are bubbles way up high, way up high (x2)
There are bubbles way up high, way up high in the sky
There are bubbles way up high, way up high.
There are bubbles way down low, way down low (x2)
There are bubbles way down low, and they tickle on your toes,
There are bubbles way down low, way down low
Early Literacy Tip
In addition to getting language, reading to babies is important because the baby is comforted by your voice, and learns a variety of intonations, rhythms, volumes and pitches.
Next we read...
I Get Dressed by David McPhail
...and shared these:
Baby Put Your Shirt On from Jbrary
Tune: Shortnin’ Bread
Baby put your shirt on, shirt on, shirt on
Baby put your shirt on, 1, 2, 3
Baby put your shirt on, shirt on, shirt on
Baby put your shirt on, 1, 2, 3
Arm to the left, arm to the right
Wiggle and jiggle and pull it on tight.
Arm to the left, arm to the right
Wiggle and jiggle and pull it on tight.
Baby put your shirt on, shirt on, shirt on
Baby put your shirt on, 1, 2, 3
The sign we learned this morning was "clothes" and then we practiced it with the song above.
Grandma’s Glasses from Storytime Katie
These are Grandma’s glasses
This is Grandma’s hat
This is the way she folds her hands
And lays them in her lap
Here are Grandpa’s glasses
And here is Grandpa’s hat
And here’s the way he folds his arms And takes a little nap
Our puppet friends joined us all dressed up in silly clothes and we sang this song:
Animals Clothes!
Tune: London Bridges
Cat has on his digger shirt
Digger shirt, digger shirt
Cat has on his digger shirt
It’s time to go and play
Repeat with lion blue pants, monkey jacket, bear winter hat, sloth dirty socks
See you next week!
