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

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

BOOK: I Can Help<\/strong> by COSTELLO
\n \"\"<\/a>
\nThis is a wonderful story for baby and toddler storytimes! It has really short sentences, but lots of meaning is carried in the bright and clear illustrations so the narrative is rich and there is lots to talk about.<\/em><\/p>\n

ACTION SONG: If You’re Happy and You Know It<\/strong><\/p>\n

FLANNEL SONG: A Hunting We Will Go*<\/strong>
\nToday we used duck\/truck and parrot\/carrot, since a duck and a bird are in the first book. Then I tossed in bear\/chair and fish\/dish.<\/em><\/p>\n

BOOK: Whose Toes Are Those?<\/strong> by ASIM
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nIf you like this bouncy, rhyming book, look for Whose Knees Are These?<\/strong> by the same author.<\/em><\/p>\n

ACTION SONG: Where Is Big Toe?<\/a><\/strong>
\nSing to: Where is Thumbkin?<\/em><\/p>\n

Where is big toe? Where is big toe?
\nHere I am; here I am!
\nTouch baby’s toe<\/em>
\nWiggle, wiggle, big toe
\nWiggle, wiggle, big toe
\nWiggle baby’s toe<\/em>
\nMy big toe, my big toe.<\/p>\n

Where is elbow…bendy, bendy elbow
\nWhere is tummy…squishy, squashy tummy
\nWhere are two eyes…winky blinky two eyes
\nWhere are two hands…happy clappy two hands<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

LITERACY TIP: Print Motivation<\/strong>
\nDon’t forget to sign up for summer reading! Even babies and toddlers can participate!<\/em><\/p>\n

BOOK: What’s On My Head?<\/strong> by MARGARET MILLER
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nThis is the book my husband and I give as a new baby present!<\/em><\/p>\n

ACTION SONG: Head and Shoulders Knees and Toes<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Head and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
\nHead and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
\nEyes and ears and mouth and nose
\nHead and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
