Toddler Time Sept, 19th



Toddler Time is on Thursday at 9:30am and 10:30am and geared towards little ones age 12 months to 36 months.  What we did at Toddler Time:

Enter the Storytime Room and say hello to our doves.
Get your name written on a shape to put on our flannel board to show who is here today
Start with our welcome songs
Sing "Wheels on the Bus"
Sing "Itsy Bitsy Spider"
Read our first story, usually a longer picture book
Sing more songs and wiggle around
Sing "Animals on the Farm" to the tune of Wheels on the Bus using animals puppets.
Read our second story, usually a little shorter book depending on the group
Shake shake shake with our shakers
Finish up with a song

Everyone is then welcomed to stay and play with our basket of books, toys, and stuffed animals.

Books read:

Early Literacy Tip:
When we talk about the sequence of our days with our children, they have a chance to hear vocabulary words in context and begin to learn how to put events in order...both skills that help with comprehension when they are readers.  (Practice: Talking)
