Thank You!

This Toddler Storytime was presented at Bellevue Public Library on Wednesday, November 20, 2013


Books:

Thanks for Thanksgiving by Julie Markes, illustrated by Doris Barrette

Lunch by Denise Fleming

Songs:

Good Morning!
(tune: "Frere Jacques")

Good morning! (echo)
How are you? (echo)
I'm so glad to see you! (echo)
Wesley is, too! (echo)



If You're Ready For a Story
(tune: "If You're Happy and You Know It")

If you're ready for a story, take a seat.
If you're ready for a story, take a seat.
Clap your hands and stomp your feet,
Make your hands all nice and neat.
If you're ready for a story, take a seat.



Activities:

Turkey puppet:

Turkey Flannelboard:

Lunch Puppet and Props:

Thanksgiving Placemats:
(Those who wanted to could have their placemat laminated after Storytime.)

 
I think the children and adults had fun playing with our various activities today.  The projects gave parents lots of opportunities to converse with their child.  I heard multiple conversations between children and adults about turkeys, food, and what things they are thankful for.

I wish all our library patrons (and especially our Storytime families) a wonderful Thanksgiving!
