Crawlers & Totally Tots- Mother's Day

Last week was our last session of Spring Story Time. I am always surprised how fast our Spring Story Time sessions go by, between story time, summer reading, special programs, upgrades, and what not the last story time arrives and it is kind of a surprise.  This week I had chosen to do Mother's Day for the theme.  My Tuesday groups were into the stories and the rhymes,however, Thursday's group was ready to run outside. I can't blame them it was almost 85 degrees that afternoon. 

We read

Dinosaur vs. Mommy by Bob Shea
What Not to Give Your Mom on Mother's Day by Martha Simpson
On Mother's Lap by Ann Herbert Scott

Rhyme

I have made you a flower

With my fingers and my thumb

So you will have these memories

For all the years to come!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Mother’s Day

My mum, she’s the best

From her head to her toes

She’s warm & she’s soft

Smelling sweet like a rose

Mom

I love you more than squishy bugs

And ladybugs

Butterflies & ice cream pies

I love you more than cupcakes, snakes,

And fishy lakes

And dare I say it? Birthday Cake!

Give Mom a Hug

Roar like a lion, growl like a bear

Give Mom a hug, show her you care

Hop like a bunny, flap like a bird

Quiet as a mouse now, don’t say a word

I Can Hug

I can hug, hug, hug

I can hop, hop, hop

I can kiss, kiss, kiss

I can stop, stop, stop

I can nod my head for yes,

And I can shake my head no,

And I can sit down very slow.

Bubble Time
