Toddler Story Time: Dr. Seuss and Girls

Last week we celebrated Dr. Seuss' birthday by reading:

And we sang "Shake my Sillies Out" with Miss Nina. It was a silly fun time!






This week we are celebrating the power of being a girl for Women's History Month! Here are some girls who can teach us a thing or two:

Stand Tall, Molly Lou Melon by Patty Lovell

 My name is not Isabella by Jennifer Fosberry

 The Most Magnificent Thing by Ashley Spires

And we sang "You are my sunshine" with Miss Nina because we can all add a little sunshine to each other's lives by being true to ourselves!

Toddler Story Time - Dr. Seuss

Today we celebrated the silliness of Dr. Seuss!  We started our story time by reading The Foot Book, and we practiced our opposites.  We found our right and left foot, reached high and low, and made ourselves little and big.  Miss Nina helped us sing Raffi's "Shake your Sillies Out", and we shook, waggled, clapped, marched, and stretched our bodies silly! Then we had a special guest, Ms. Snyder (pictured below), read My Many Colored Days to the group, and we talked about our favorite colors. Then we read Mr. Brown can Moo!  Can you? and practiced making lots of fun and silly sounds. By that time we had so much silliness in us we had to sing "Shake my sillies out" again! Our last story was read to us by none other than the football player Tim Tebow!  He read "Green eggs and ham" while the book was animated all around him.  We ended our time together by singing our "Good bye song" from Disney's "Out of the Box".  Each child got to take a Dr. Seuss hat and sticker with them as they left to have a silly day!
