<\/a><\/p>\nHere are this week’s contributions, thank you everyone! <\/p>\n
Bridget at What Is Bridget Reading<\/a> had to send me her link TWICE before I remembered to add it in so she gets to go at the top of the list now. \ud83d\ude42 She made excellent reindeer<\/a> for Sandra Boynton’s “Bob” board book, which is too little to share in storytime. <\/p>\n Anne at So Tomorrow<\/a> sends us a lovely clip art Christmas Tree<\/a> rhyme all ready to print and go! <\/p>\n Kathryn shares TWO ideas at Fun with Friends at Storytime<\/a>: a cookies idea<\/a> (which could go either more or less Christmas-y per your needs) AND “Christmas Candles Shining Bright<\/a>” which includes adorable holly leaves and SPARKLY PIPE CLEANERS. Need I say more? (Also, many winter holidays include candle rituals, so you could take off the holly and substitute “holiday” for “Christmas” in the rhyme and be good to go for a more general holiday activity.) <\/p>\n Laura from Laura’s Library Adventures<\/a> shares a version of “The Mitten<\/a>” with an ingenious solution to the problem of getting all those animals\/flannel pieces into the dropped mitten, so check it out! <\/p>\n Sandy at Storytime Sparks<\/a> is back (hooray!) with two winter & snowflake contributions<\/a>! One is a prop story for the old song “Suzy Snowflake” and for the other she used cutouts from the dollar store and wrote her own rhyme “Winter Is Coming.” Awesome! <\/p>\n Jane and Piper at the Library<\/a> wrote her own happy holidays rhyme to help showcase her photos of the fabulous tree crafts and holiday programs at her library! I *LOVE* all those trees! Thank you Jane! <\/p>\n And my contribution is a forest of pine trees<\/a>–with a plain winter version and a stars-and-lights version. <\/p>\n Thanks all for joining us this week! <\/p>\n Find out more about Flannel Friday at our website<\/a>, see all the past ideas at our Pinterest<\/a> (including the Christmas<\/a> board), and hang out with us on Facebook<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Happy December!
