Baby Storytime – Puppies

Check out what my typical storytime looks like here. All the words to my songs and rhymes can be found here.

Opening Song
Welcome Song

Opening Rhyme/Movement
Hands are Clapping

Early Literacy Tip
It was a really cold week and it was definitely the first time most of them had been out of the house. In each session I had to cut a book short. So, my tip was: "Make reading enjoyable! If your little one doesn't want to listen then don't force them too. Let them play and pick up a book yourself. It's wonderful to promote reading at your house simply by letting your child catch you reading!"

Shape Game
Today, I hid a dog! You can find out about this game here.

Rhyme/Movement
Roly-Poly

Book

Puppies- Fiona Watt
This board book is very sweet. It is a little though and works best with a small crowd.

Rhyme/Movement
Giddy-up, Giddy-up

Rhyme/Movement
Row, Row, Row Your Boat

Book
Maggie's Ball by Lindsay Barrett George
An entertaining story about a dog who's looking for a friend and loses her ball. The expressions on the puppy's face are hilarious and the parents got a kick out of it. It is long, so I clipped a lot of the pages.

Rhyme/Movement
This is Big

Rhyme/Movement
Where is Thumbkin

Choral Reading
Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr.

Egg Shakers
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Baa, Baa, Black Sheep 

Rhyme/Movement
Zoom, Zoom, Zoom

Playtime!
