Foodie Baby Storytime

Hello!

I had a wonderful baby storytime with a culinary focus at Sebastopol, inspired by Atinuke's new beautiful picture book:

I used these foodie songs/rhymes within my outline:

• Bread & Butter
• Toast in the Toaster
• 5 Little Tofu Dogs
• Tops & Bottoms Hand Washing Song
• Bananas Unite! (with flannel board)
• The Milkshake Song
• We Ask for Milk Like This (with sign language)
• Mix a Pancake (with scarves)
• Popcorn Kernels (with scarves)

These flannel characters were fun to make. I paired them with the Bananas / Oranges / Avocado / Yellow Corn UNITE! song. It was a crowd pleaser  :}

Merry Storytime! -Courtney

Thanksgiving Storytime

Thanksgiving Storytime

Thank You Bees by Toni Yuly

I discovered Toni Yuly about a year ago and I love her books.  They are perfect for Babytime and Toddler Time.  I used the same Thanksgiving books every year, so I was excited when this one came out, because it is a new book!  The toddlers can join in with saying "thank you".  This is a win in my book.

I also play Raffi's "Thanks a Lot" during bubble time.  I love that song, it's so simple and nice.  

Happy Thanksgiving!  Gobble!  Gobble!
