Tonight is big book night. I just picked a bunch of titles that I were new to the group or just some of my favorites. This is the last storytime for 08'. It was a good one. My little one Payton is growing and beginning to participate with the group. It came in saying "circle", a.k.a play one of the circle songs like "Ring Around the Rosies" , "Looby Loo" or "Hookie Pookie" songs. So I did the "Sammy" song since it blended well after reading "Don't Forget the Bacon" by Pat Hutchins. Guess what? He joined in. Yippee! Well towards the end of the song but who cares...he did it. He did "If You Happy and You Know It" with the group. I'm so proud of the little fella. All the kids said they had a good Christmas. Of course we did one of my favorite nursery ryhmes, Jack Be Nimble and each of the kids including the toddlers jumped over my pretend candlestick.
Big Books read tonight however any can lend itself to reading to a small group:
Silly Sally by Audrey Wood (It fell apart)
Don't Forget the Bacon by Pat Hutchins
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr.
If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Numeroff
