<br />
Instead of a felt board story/rhyme this morning, I did a folder story. Since we still have ice on the ground with a little bit of snow, and still winter, the folder story wss about a snowman. See the patterns and rhyme at these links. I tailored the snowman a little bit. I will try to get actual photos of the folder included here.<br />

If you do not have a set of these differentiated cubes for your storytime usage, and you have about twenty bucks available, I urge you to get a set of them. I've primarily used them for gross motor activities, and there are a TON of ideas and free already done cube sets online. Today I used them for a "gross motor" and telling/writing stories combo....we used some of the old cube activities I had used at Christmas/winter theme,and then made up a mini-story as we did the gross motor movements to go with whatever we rolled. <br />

Our activity was just to "write" out own books. I just printed off a simple "cover page" and then supplied some white copy paper, crayons, markers, & pencils, and had the kids "write their own books." With the range of kiddos I have, we had the scribble pages (which is awesome) on up the beginning concepts of starting to draw pictures to go with a story idea. I encouraged the adults that they can also write down the words that the children tell them that goes with their pictures. <br />
<br />
I've done this before, and I always hope that maybe this will encourage one or two of them to go home and continue "writing"!<br />

I tell you, it doesn't even feel that we could be getting ready to celebrate the new millenium, or at least that it was just a couple of years ago, but that was now 20 years ago!!! Time goes faster and faster the older one gets!<br />
<br />
It's also another new year of storytimes. I usually kind of think my "year" starts back in September, kind of like when school starts, but I suppose it starts again now.<br />
<br />
I still have the two storytimes I do per week - Tuesday mornings and Thursday evenings. I still maintain a pretty fair attendance on Tuesday mornings. It has waned somewhat since the weather has gotten colder, but hopefully it will build back up when the weather warms up. Thursday evenings is going through a downslide primarily. I certainly don't blame parents for not wanting to get back out with their kiddos when it's so cold.<br />
<br />
I'm considering starting a once a month Saturday morning storytime. I'm leaning more and more towards starting it. I need to make a for sure decision as I really ought to start in February, and get it going.<br />
<br />
After going through the letters of the alphabet in the fall (2 alphabet letters each week, with books and activities and crafts centered around the letters), this session we are going to focus on "Favorite Things". I'm starting out with some of my favorite things, and then I'll ask the kids and their families what their favorite things are -- books, stories, animals, food, activities, etc.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">The first book we read was <u>Pretty Kitty</u>, by Karen Beaumont. I actually found this book while my family was on vacation during Christmas break. It's a very sweet book. There is a repetitive verse that my HeadStart kids got into helpming with! Some of the print is scattered around the page, some very small font on dark colors. I love the charm of that in picture books, and love how it can bring focus to different story elements. However, something that is hard for me to admit, but as I get older, it's getting a little harder for me to focus on and find all the random text pieces scattered around, even after I've read through it a couple of times ahead of time. I have to be very cognizant of this.</span><br />

My storytime kids, across the board, LOVE the felt board activities that hide something underneath a selection of items. Today we did "Little Cat Little Cat" hiding behind different hats.<br />

The second book we read was <u>What Will Fat Cat Sit On</u>, by Jan Thomas. She is a phenomenal author/illustrator for all books very young children. They are fun and engaging. This book with very simple text brought chortles of joy from several of the little ones this morning. </div>

We didn't get through all of the verses, as I have a variety of very young kiddos who were running out of time with us :)<br />
<br />
After singing our Goodbye Song, those who were able to stay, did a very simple Cat craft.<br />
I found the image on Pinterest, but wasn't able to get the link to work in order to give credit to the originator.<br />

However, due to time constraints, we didn't paint the entire plate. First we drew the nose, mouth, and whiskers with black marker, glued on large googly eyes, and then used a square sponge pinched with a clothespin to paint...they could either paint as much as they wanted, or it was pretty easy to paint stripes on the kitty. </div>

(Tune: "Music, Music, Music")<br />
<br />
Twinkle, twinkle, little stars,<br />
Friends of Jupiter and Mars.<br />
All you do the whole night through<br />
Is twinkle, twinkle, twinkle.<br />
Shine, oh, friends of mine.<br />
If wishes really, really do come true.<br />
I will wish tonight on you.<br />
Please, oh please, oh please come true.<br />
The wish I wish tonight on you.<br />
Then tomorrow all day through<br />
I'll twinkle, twinkle, twinkle.<br />

<b>Little Stars</b><br />
(Tune: Music, Music, Music)<br />
<br />
Twinkle, twinkle, little star<br />
Friends of Jupiter and Mars.<br />
ALl you do the whole night through<br />
is twinkle, twinkle, twinkle.<br />
<br />
Rockets keep flying higher<br />
Keep Flying further, further every day,<br />
And need the stars to chart their way.<br />
<br />
So while you watch the ships go by<br />
Keep on lighting up the sky<br />
Keep on shining through the night<br />
And twinkle, twinkle, twinkle.<br />

<b>The Stars Are Shining Bright</b><br />
(Tune: "The Farmer in the Dell")<br />
<br />
The stars are shining bright<br />
See their twinkling light.<br />
When you see the sky at night<br />
The stars are shining bright.<br />
<br />
<b>Sky</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Up, up and away,<br />
I can fly so high!<br />
Just believe in me,<br />
And I'll reach for the sky!<br />
<br />
<b><u>I See a Star</u></b><br />
(tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb)<br />
<br />
I see a star that's not in the sky<br />
Not in the sky, not in the sky.<br />
I see a star that's not in the sky,<br />
Can you tell me why?<br />
<br />
It is in the ocean blue<br />
Ocean blue, ocean blue.<br />
It is in the ocean blue,<br />
It has a name lie you.<br />
<br />
See star, see star is it's name,<br />
Is it's name, is it's name.<br />
Sea star, sea star is it's name<br />
And we're finished with this game.<br />
<br />
<b>Stars</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
At night I see the twinkling stars<br />
<i>Clasp and open hands</i><br />
And a great big smiling moon.<br />
<i>Circle arms overhead</i><br />
And mommy tucks me into bed<br />
<i>Lay finger in cupped hand</i><br />
And sings a good night tune.<br />
<i>Rocking motion with hands</i><br />
<br />
<b>One Little Star</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
One little star was out last night<br />
<i>Cross one pointer finger over the first two fingers of other hand</i><br />
It was pretty as can be<br />
It was peeping through my window<br />
<i>Hold hands up to face as if peeping</i><br />
And looking right at me.<br />
<i>Point to sky.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<b>Bright Sun</b><br />
(tune: "Row row row your boat")<br />
<br />
Bright sun shining down,<br />
<i>Spread fingers and move hands down slowly</i><br />
Shining on the ground<br />
What a lovely face you have<br />
<i>Make a large circle in front of face with arms</i><br />
Yellow, big and round.<br />
<br />
<b>The Sun is Up So High</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
The sun is up so high<br />
<i>Stretch arms above head.</i><br />
And is so big and round<br />
<i>Form circle with arms.</i><br />
But when the evening comes.<br />
The sun goes down, down, down.<br />
<i>Slowly stoop until in kneeling position. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<b>You Are My Sunshine</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.<br />
You make me happy when skies are gray.<br />
You'll never know dear<br />
How much I love you<br />
Please don't take my sunshine away.<br />
<br />
<b>What Can We Do on a Sunny Day?</b><br />

When we all go out to play?<br />
<br />
<b>Mr. Moon</b><br />
Mr. Moon, Mr. Moon, you're out too soon<br />
The sun is still in the sky.<br />

<br />
<b>We'll Be Orbiting Round the Moon</b><br />

<b>Up in the Sky</b><br />
(Tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb)<br />

What's that object passing by?<br />
There's a ________________ in the sky<br />
There's a ________________ passing by<br />
<i>Have children select what it is</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<b>Rocketship</b><br />
(tune: Oh Do You Know the Muffin Man)<br />
<br />
If I were a rocket ship, I'd blast to the moon,<br />
I'd blast to the moon.<br />
If I were a rocketship,<br />
I'd blast to the moon after cowndown.<br />
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 (<i>say without music)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
I'm flying into space in my rocketship<br />
Rocketship, rocketship<br />
I'm flying into space in my rocketship<br />
Flying to the moon.<br />
<br />
I'm walking in space around my rocketship,<br />
My rocketship, my rocketship<br />
I'm walking in space around my rocketship<br />
It's dark and cold in space.<br />
<br />
If I were a rocketship I'd fly back to earth<br />
Fly back to earth<br />
If I were a rocketship<br />
I'd fly back to earth from space.<br />
<br />
If I were an astronaut I'd splash down at sea<br />

Do you want to go up with me to the moon?<br />
<i>Point to someone, then self</i><br />

<i>Pretend to climb in ship, swish hands quickly.</i><br />
Faster and faster we reach to the sky<br />
<i>Jump and reach</i><br />
Isn't it fun to be able to fly?<br />

We're on the moon, now all take a look<br />
<i>Look down</i><br />

Is now complete!<br />

Then you shall have some pie."<br />"Purr, purr, purr."<br />
<br />
The three little kittens put on their mittens<br />
And soon ate up the pie.<br />
"Oh Mother dear, we greatly fear<br />
Our mittens we have soiled."<br />"What! Soiled your mittens, you naughty kittens."<br />Then they began to sigh,<br />
"Meow, meow, meow."<br />
<br />
The three little kittens washed their mittens<br />
And hung them up to dry.<br />
"Oh Mother dear, look here, look here,<br />
Our mittens we have washed."<br />
"What? Washed your mittens, you darling kittens!<br />
but I smell a rat close by.<br />
Hush, hush, hush!"<br />

ACTIVITIES:<br />
<br />
Since today was a sensory activity/play time, I had different areas set up with different activities. I really had wanted to go outside, but the weather just is not cooperating again this week. It wasn't raining, but it was dreary and cool, and it had been threatening sprinkling. If we had been able to go outside, it would have been easier to set the activity stations up and clean up would have been a little simpler. As it was I couldn't really put the activities on the floor for clean up purposes and also the carpet on the floor, even if I would have put a plastic mat down. We did fine with tables, but the kids had to use chairs and that's always awkwardness. The kids are troopers though.<br />
<br />
Water Beads<br />Rice<br />
Colored Pasta and Pipe Cleaners<br />
Play Doh<br />
<br />
<br />
If we'd been able to go outside I wanted to also just have a water play area of pouring, etc., as well as shaving cream. I tried to make some "oobleck" with cornstarch and water, but I put too much water in it so it didn't work. <br />
<br />
We had a good time.<br />

I don't do this very often. I don't really know why, just that I haven't for a number of years - probably due to several things: too hot, bugs, no easy way to transport supplies in and out, and today --- rain. Yes. There was a chance in the forecase this afternoon, but it started this morning a little before 8:00. I was hoping it wouldn't be much, just few sprinkles, and dry up by 10:30. Oh no...there was thunder...and fairly good showers.... Oh well, we stayed inside, moving to the children's book area of the library, which is different for us as well. I will show you why we were not in the meeting room, our normal area of the library, at the bottom of this post.<br />
<br />
BOOKS:<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Teddy-Bears-Picnic-Jerry-Garcia/dp/006027302X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1537896644&sr=8-3" target="_blank"><img height="320" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61XzmxJAICL._SX399_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg" width="256" /></a>This is the song that you can pull up on Youtube. I found myself trying to sing the tune on some of the words.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Bear-Wants-More-Books/dp/068984509X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1537896718&sr=8-1" target="_blank"><img height="294" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51EYZeWy-kL._SY458_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg" width="320" /></a>I don't know about you guys, but I LOVE all the Bear books by Karma Wilson, but this is one of my favorites. I like when the kids join in and "read" the part ..."and bear wants more" with me!<br />

<br />
Monday morning before the library opened...this happened. Thank goodness no one was injured, and the only damage was to the front door area of the building, but also the door to the meeting room there on the left side. The bottom glass area broke, so there was glass all over the carpet in the meeting room. The carpet has been vacuumed several times, but one of the ladies here could still see some sparkly bits in the carpet, and we just didn't want to take a chance with little ones on the carpet. Better safe than sorry.<br />

I do not know where I've been for the past however many years, but I just became privvy to the Baby Shark craze this past summer. And now...I love it! It's super catchy and gets stuck in my head. So...of course I had to do a storytime around this theme, and because I love Baby Shark so much I also had to get myself a t-shirt and hand puppet!!!! You know, when you wear this shirt, be prepared for comments and smiles...you will be a magnet for converation!</div>

First book: Very cute; the pages are very busy with how the print is laid out, but fun!</div>
<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Three-Little-Fish-Big-Shark/dp/0439719623/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1537289279&sr=8-1" target="_blank"><img alt="The Three Little Fish and the Big Bad Shark by [Geist, Ken]" height="333" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51u8T86NveL.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
I found the "Two Little Sharks" fingerplay off of <a href="https://sunflowerstorytime.com/2015/04/18/shark-week/" target="_blank">Sunflower Storytime</a> blog. They have a link to get a pattern to make the sharks!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu2NEPJtmgiTrg87LBUyoXt0KoB3WD6zDoDy_wv1QcZvTpCDTCMgOvEwqgT3xoyYkbKK46O55xRYbkMj-VhSHWhcZ8j48GRTE2wIi6Kmd7JNeylmk-pUvsznXkWFfCEKwT2Rep9nJbikc/s1600/IMG_20180918_123507075_HDR.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1201" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu2NEPJtmgiTrg87LBUyoXt0KoB3WD6zDoDy_wv1QcZvTpCDTCMgOvEwqgT3xoyYkbKK46O55xRYbkMj-VhSHWhcZ8j48GRTE2wIi6Kmd7JNeylmk-pUvsznXkWFfCEKwT2Rep9nJbikc/s320/IMG_20180918_123507075_HDR.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
Second Book: It didn't seem that long when I read it to myself before hand, but when I was reading it during storytime with mixed age kiddos, it lost the attention of the really little kids. It's still a cute book though.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Im-Shark-Bob-Shea/dp/006199846X/ref=sr_1_1_atc_badge_A2N1U4I2KOS032_twi_har_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1537289345&sr=1-1&keywords=i%27m+a+shark" target="_blank"><img height="400" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51pFvxs8YrL._SX422_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg" width="339" /></a><br />
<br />
Then, the creme de la creme...<br />

<br />
<br />
There is a "Feed the Shark" activity on the Sunflower Storytime blog along with a template. It's very fun, and is a good activity to use with practicing colors. So I made blue, red, green, & yellow fish.<br />
<img alt="Feed the Shark Preschool Activity - printable template" src="https://sunflowerstorytime.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/dscn3151.jpg?w=371&h=559" /><br />
We sang:<br />
If you have a blue fish, blue fish, blue fish,<br />
If you have a blue fish,<br />
Come feed it to the shark.<br />
<br />
...and then continued with the other colors of fish.<br />
<br />
By this time, the kiddos were feeling really restless and it went "okay".<br />
<br />
Goodbye Song - "Tickle The Clouds"<br />
<br />
Tickle the clouds<br />
Tickle your toes<br />
Turn around<br />
and Tickle your nose (I had the shark puppet on and pretended to nibble my nose)<br />
Reach down low.<br />
Reach up high<br />
Storytime is over<br />
So say goodbye.<br />
<br />

<a href="https://supersimpleonline.com/">https://supersimpleonline.com</a> has supercute songs and activities.<br />
<br />
I put out the patterns and supplies needed for a baby shark headband...families could either take it home and do it or make one at the library before they left.<br />
<a href="https://supersimpleonline.com/resources/baby-shark-headband/">https://supersimpleonline.com/resources/baby-shark-headband/</a><br />
<br />
If you do a search for Baby Shark on this site there are a bunch of different crafts and coloring sheets, etc.<br />
