\nI tried to use a few wiggly things today: We did the pig because of This Little Piggy, then also Ants, Bug, and Mouse.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nWalk fingers up baby’s tummy<\/em>
\nWalking up the stair
\nLooking for a warm nest
\nThere, oh there!
\nTickle baby’s armpit!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\nI wrote this for a bugs storytime a couple years ago.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nBounce or rock baby on your lap<\/em>
\nBut if you get too close to me I’ll FLY away!
\nOn “fly,” lift baby up!<\/em><\/p>\n
\nI’m a little bumblebee…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\nI learned this story first at a Pam Schiller workshop, but it’s also in “What’ll I Do With the Baby-O?” by Jane Cobb<\/em> <\/p>\n
\nBooks like these, which have lists of activities or lists of items, are great books for babies because there’ isn’t a really strong narrative. That makes it easy to read as many or as few pages as keep your baby’s interest. Stopping books when babies are done listening is a great way to keep your book sharing experiences positive and not stressful.<\/em><\/p>\n
