Songs:
Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.


Daddy Bear, Daddy Bear, Turn Around
Daddy Bear, Daddy Bear, turn around,
Daddy Bear, Daddy Bear, touch the ground.
Daddy Bear, Daddy Bear, reach up high,
Daddy Bear, Daddy Bear, touch the sky.
Daddy Bear, Daddy Bear, turn out the light,
Ssshhhhhhh!
Daddy Bear, Daddy Bear, say, "Good night."

Each Papa Bear & 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).
