Revamped a Bathtime storytime so I could read Pete the Cat today! <\/p>\n

OPENING SONG: Hello Song*<\/strong><\/p>\n

OPENING FINGERPLAY: Open Them Shut Them*<\/strong><\/p>\n

BOOK: Pete the Cat<\/strong> by LITWIN
\nI know not everyone loves this book but I am one of the ones who does!<\/em>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

ACTION SONG: If You’re Happy and You Know It<\/strong>
\nPete LOVES his shoes! What makes you happy?<\/em><\/p>\n

FLANNEL SONG: 5 Clean and Squeaky Pigs<\/strong>
\nI found this rhyme in our storytime files years ago; I don’t know if someone here found it or made it up! Sing it to: 5 Green and Speckled Frogs. I stole the idea for pigs clean on one side and dirty on the other from Miss Mary Liberry<\/a>!<\/em>
\n\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Five pigs so squeaky clean
\nCleanest you’ve ever seen
\nWanted to go outside and play
\nOink! Oink!
\nOne jumped into the mud
\nLanded with a big THUD
\nThen there were four clean squeaky pigs.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

FLANNEL SONG: A Hunting We Will Go*<\/strong>
\nToday we used cat\/hat, pig\/wig, whale\/pail, and mouse\/house<\/em><\/p>\n

BOOK: Trashy Town<\/strong> by Zimmerman
\nI skipped one or two of the places Mr Gilly goes to, make this shorter for the babies.<\/em>
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

ACTION SONG: This Is the Way<\/strong>
\nI got out our scarves and we pretended they were washcloths while we sang this song! Sing it to: Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush.<\/em><\/p>\n

This is the way we wash our arms
\nWash our arms, wash our arms
\nThis is the way we wash our arms
\nWhen we’re in the bathtub.<\/p>\n

Also wash your legs, tummies, heads…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

LITERACY TIP: Vocabulary<\/strong>
\nSongs like “If You’re Happy” and “This Is the Way” help build young children’s vocabulary by pointing to body parts as you name them.<\/em><\/p>\n

ACTION RHYME: This is Big Big Big*<\/strong> <\/p>\n

CLOSING SONG: Sneeze Game*<\/strong> <\/p>\n
