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.

 

Puppy's Dog House

This is puppy's dog house.  (put tips of fingers together)
This is puppy's bed.  (hands flat, palms upward)
This is puppy's pan of milk, (cup hands together to  make a bowl)
So that he can be fed.
This puppy has a collar (encircle neck with fingers)
with his name upon it, too.
Take a stick and throw it (make a throwing motion)
and he'll bring it back to you!  (Clap)

 

The Goldfish by The Laurie Berkner Band

 

Love Your Pets  [ tune: "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" ]

Love, love, love your pets,
Love them everyday.
Give them food and water too,
Then let them run and play.

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.
