Here are the rhymes and songs from today:
Welcome To Storytime! [tune: Twinkle, Twinkle]
Welcome, welcome everyone,
Now we're here, let's have some fun.
First we'll sing the ABC's,
then we'll read and sing with me.
Welcome, welcome, everyone,
Now we're here let's have some fun.
Pitter-Pat
Pitter-pat, pitter-pat, oh so many hours,
[Let fingers patter on floor, legs, head, etc.]
Although it keeps me in the house,
It’s very good for flowers.
[Cup hands and extend slowly upward]
Rain is Falling On You [Tune: Happy Birthday ]
Rain is falling on you,
Rain is falling on me,
Rain is falling on everyone,
Rain is falling, Yippeee!!
Rain Song
First a little drop of rain hit the ground, tap, tap. [Tap your fingers]
Then another drop of rain hit the ground, tap, tap. [Tap your fingers]
Then another and another and another and another,
And pretty soon we heard a different sound, Splash!! [Clap hands]
The More We Read Together [Tune: The More We Get Together]
The more we read together, together, together,
The more we read together, the better it is!
'Cause reading and singing and talking together,
Is how you learn the six skills for reading by six.
