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.
Little Bird, Little Bird [tune: Twinkle, Twinkle]
Little bird, little bird, Fly around,
Up to the sky, Down to the ground.
Little bird, little bird, Flap your wings.Open your beak And sweetly sing.
Little bird, little bird, Fly to your nest.
Now it is time To take a rest.
Five Little Birds
Five little birds in a nest in the tree,
Are as hungry as can be.“Peep”, said baby bird number one,
Mother bird provised she would come.“Peep, Peep”, said baby bird number two,
If she doesn’t come what will we do?“Peep, Peep, Peep”, said baby bird number three, I hope she can find this tree.
“Peep, Peep, Peep, Peep”, said baby bird number four, she never was so late before.
“Peep, Peep, Peep, Peep, Peep”, said baby bird number five, When will our mother bird arrive?
Well, here she comes to feed her family,And they’re all as happy as can be!
Found a Feather [tune: "Clementine" ]
Found a feather, found a feather,
Found a feather on the ground.
Oh, I am so very lucky,
A feather to have found.
Picked it up, Picked it up,
Picked it up just like that,
I picked up that pretty feather
then I put it in my hat.
Found a feather, found a feather,
Found a feather on the ground.
Oh, I am so very lucky,
A feather to have found.
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.
Hope to see you at our next Antioch Preschool Storytime!
