Nursery Rhymes

Tonight we had an awesome night of resighting classic nursery rhymes and acting out a few. I used a combo of flannels, sing-a-longs and group game. I think this was one of the sweatier nights. We did the "The Farmer in the Dell" traditional game which was quite a funny sight. But the kids had a good time even the babies were enjoying themselves too. Koodoos to me for picking a good topic!

• The Lady with the Alligator Purse by Nadine Bernard Westcott
• Little White Duck (group participants) Walt Whippo E 782.42 WHI
• 1,2, Buckle My Shoe by Anna Grossnickle Hines (my son's favorite!!!!!)
• The Farmer in the Dell illustrated by llse Plume ( includes instructions for playing the traditional game)
