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.

 

If You're Friendly  [tune: "If You're Happy and You Know It"]

If your friendly and you know it, clap your hands.
If your friendly and you know it, clap your hands.
If your friendly and you know it, and you relly want to show it,
If your friendly and you know it clap your hands.

 

Different Friends [tune:"Row Your Boat" ]

Love, love, love your friends,
Different as they seem.
Playing, laughing, joking, helping,
True friends are like a dream!

 

Let's Be Friends with One Another

Let's be friends with one another (3 x's)
Let's be friends today.

You can sing with a friend,
You can howl with a friend,
You can hum with a friend,
Let's be friends today!

You can jump with a friend,
You can clap with a friend,
You can bounce with a friend,
Let's be friends today!

Let's be friends with one another (3 x's)
Let's be friends today.

 

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.
