I miss seeing everyone every Wednesday for Wee Wigglers Storytime!
I thought it might be fun to post some of my actual storytime outlines here, as well as some of the songs and finger plays I do every week. I am going to include some of the flannel rhymes, just do your best! Click the links below, to have my actual storytime preps! I am sending along some Springtime ones, in hopes that we will see good weather so everyone can get outside and play! Feel free to comment on any of our blog posts and let me know what you are doing, how you are liking stuff, and if you want a certain kind of post! Don't forget, I go live every Friday on Facebook at 10:30 am with 3 stories!
Check out April's Book Suggestions from the Youth Services Department!
Five Umbrellas Five umbrellas waiting for rain to pour One was picked, and now there are four Four umbrellas, saying pick me, pick me! One was taken, and now there are three Three umbrellas, wondering what to do One was chosen, and now there are two Two umbrellas waiting for some fun One was picked and now there is one One little umbrella, the rain is all done He went home and now there are none | Five Little Flowers Five little flowers growing in a row The first one said, "We need rain to grow." The second one said, "Yes, we need water!" The third one said, "Whew, it's getting hotter!" The fourth one said, "Look, there are clouds in the sky." The fifth one said, "I wonder why?" Then "BOOM" went the thunder, (clap hands together loudly) And "ZAP" went the lightening. (draw zig-zag in air; put lightning bolt on flannel board) That springtime storm was kind of frightening. (shiver) But were the flowers scared? No, no, no. (shake head; remove lightning bolt) They knew they needed rain to grow, grow, grow. (hold hand above ground & raise; put raindrops on board) |
Hippity-hop, Hippity-hay Hippity-hop, hippity-hay Five little bunnies went out to play. Hippity-hop, hippity-hay One little bunny hopped away. Hippity-hop, hippity-hay Four little bunnies went out to play. Hippity-hop, hippity-hay One little bunny hopped away. Hippity-hop, hippity-hay No little bunnies went out to play. Because they all have run away. Hippity-hippity-hop, HAY-HAY. | Little Bird, Little Bird One little bird with feathers of blue; flew beside the green one and then there were two. Two little birds signing in the tree; The red bird came and then there were three. Three little birds, wishing there were more; Along came the purple bird and then there were four. Four little birds, happy to be alive; Found a little yellow one, and then there were five. Five little birds as happy as can be. Singing beautiful songs - just for you and me! |
