Our Tales for 2s and 3s and Preschool storytimes on Wednesday and Thursday included some enthusiastic dancing, stomping, and singing along to the song "Boots" from one of our favorite CDs, The Best of the Laurie Berkner Band.
We said a poem together and chatted about some different ways to stay dry in the rain:
The rain fell down on the rooftops,
The rain fell down on the trees,
The rain fell down on the green grass,
But it didn't fall down on me.
One of our crafts this week was inspired by Ollie the Stomper by Olivier Dunrea. The kids had the most fun painting water over the blue markers to make the blurry rain effect!
Other books we shared this week included the classic Little Cloud by Eric Carle as well as some new finds such as The Thingamabob by Il Sung Na and Raindrop, Plop by Wendy Cheyette Lewison.
We're looking forward to some sun and flowers after all of this rain, especially since we'll be getting green with our Earth Day theme next week!
