LMNO Peas, by Baker

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, by Martin


RHYME

"Alphabet Beat"

First clap your hands
Then stomp your feet
Everybody do the alphabet beat.

Apple, Apple, Apple - a-a-a,
Apple, Apple, Apple - a-a-a
Wave your arms high
Swing your arms low
The alphabet beat is the way to go.

Blue, Blue, Blue - b-b-b
Blue, Blue, Blue - b-b-b
Move to the left
Move to the right
The alphabet beat is way out of sight

Car, Car, Car - c-c-c
Car, Car, Car - c-c-c
Shout it out loud
Whispher dow low
Just one more alphabet beat to go!

Dog, Dog, Dog - d-d-d
Dog, Dog, Dog - d-d-d
Now give a high five to a nearby friend
The short vowel beat has come to the end. 

"If Your Name Starts With ____, ..."
(Tune: "If You're Happy and You Know It")

If your name starts with A shout hooray
If your name starts with B clap with me.
If your name starts with C touch your knee
If your name starts with D say yippee
If your name starts with E touch your teeth
If your name starts with F say "Wake up Jeff!"
If your name starts with G blow a kiss to me
If your name starts with H say "Neigh"
If your name starts with I blink your eye
If your name starts with J say "Gidday"
If your name starts with K then start to sway
If your name starts with L ring a bell
If your name starts with M look at them
If your name starts with N cluck like a hen
If your name starts with O touch your toe
If your name starts with P say "Whoopee!"
If your name starts with Q say "Achoo!"
If your name starts with R drive a car
If your name starts with S make a mess
If your name starts with S make a mess.
If your name starts with T watch out for the bee!
If your name starts with U say "Whoooo!"
If your name starts with V pat your knee.
If your name starts with W, X, Y, or Z, then stand up, take a bow and say, "That's me!"

If you know the names of the children you are having for storytime, then you can edit this song to suit the children; it can be quite long otherwise.

One little squirrel playing in the sun,

He ran away, now there are none.

Q and R


Books:
Finding books that relate to the letter Q was quite a challenge, one which I was not able to overcome, at least from the standpoint of an appropriate read-aloud book....they were usually too long and involved.  The Dream Quilt and Sylvia Jean, Drama Queen were two books that I found in our collection - nice books but too long for my littles.

Sooooo....we had two R books...both involving Rabbits, but both cute books.....


 They had a lot of fun with the book Duck! Rabbit!, and it was fun seeing their little minds working and seeing their faces when they were able to finally visualize the Rabbit or the Duck.
