Skinnamarink


Skinnamarink-a-dink-a-dink,
Skinnamarink-a-dink-a-doo,
I love you!
Skinnamarink-a-dink-a-dink,
Skinnamarink-a-dink-a-doo,
I love you!

I love you in the morning,
And in the afternoon.
I love you in the evening,
And underneath the moon, oh,

Skinnamarink-a-dink-a-dink,
Skinnamarink-a-dink-a-doo,
I love you!



Clap, Clap, Clap Your Hands

Clap, clap, clap your hands,
Clap your hands together.

Clap, clap, clap your hands,
Clap your hands together.

Pat your knees...
Tap your feet...
Jump up high...
Give a hug...
Blow a kiss...
Wave hello...



Hello, Friends
(tune: "Goodnight Ladies")
Hello friends.
Hello friends.
Hello friends.
We're glad you came today!







Mr. Sun

Oh Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun,
Please shine down on me.
Oh Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun,
Hiding behind a tree.

These little children are asking you,
To please come out so we can play with you.

Oh Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun,
Please shine down on me.




Rhymes:

Elephant Goes Like This and That


Elephant goes like this and that. (gently rock from side to side)
He's terribly big, (hold hands up high)
And terribly fat. (hold hands out wide)
He has big ears, (wiggle ears)
And he has big toes, (wiggle toes)
And goodness gracious!
What a nose! (wiggle nose)




Slowly, Slowly, Very Slowly

Slowly, slowly, very slowly creeps the garden snail.
(walk fingers over baby)
Slowly, slowly, very slowly up the wooden trail.

Quickly, quickly, very quickly runs the little mouse!
(run fingers over baby)    
Quickly, quickly, very quickly round about the house!



Our activity this week was Bean Bags!





























Each Baby & Me Storytime includes activities that support one or more of the five early literacy practices identified as essential in helping your child develop the skills they need before they can learn to read. The five practices – singing, talking, reading, playing and writing –were developed for Every Child Ready to Read®, an initiative of the Association for Library Services for Children (ALSC) and the Public Library Association (PLA).
