Pop-Up Storytime

Last week we had our first pop-up storytime!  I had promised our families to do a few storytimes during the summer, just to keep our little group going and connected. It is a fun way to change up the week and get to see the little kids and meet the older siblings.  We had a great time and everyone loved Roly-Poly and her egg. We read

Opening song: Let’s start story time!
Everybody say 1, story time has began,
Everybody say 2, shake your shoulders, show your shoes,
Everybody say 3, and listen carefully
Everybody say 4, and put your bottoms on the floor

Books:
Roly-Poly Egg by Kali Stileman
I’m A Dirty Dinosaur by Janeen Brian
Dinosaur Kisses by David Ezra Stein


Flannels:
Elephants on the Tub

Wiggle, Wiggle
A wiggle, wiggle here
A wiggle, wiggle there.
Wiggle your hands up in the air
Wiggle our shoulders and wiggle your hips,
Wiggle your knees and move your lips,
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle
And wiggle and bend
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle,
And this is the end!

I Clap My Hands
I clap my hands,
I touch my feet,
I jump up from the ground,
I clap my hands,
I touch my feet,
And turn myself around

Elephants in the Bathtub
One elephant in the bathtub
Going for a swim
Knock, knock (clap twice)
Splash, splash (slap knees twice)
Come on in! (motion with both hands to come in)
Five elephants in the bathtub
Going for a swim
Knock, knock (clap twice)
Splash, splash (slap knees twice)
It all fell in! (knock the felt pieces down)

Bend and Stretch
Bend and stretch, reach for the stars
There goes Jupiter, here comes Mars
Bend and stretch and reach for the sky
Stand on tip-e-toe, go so high!
