Animal Song: "If Animals Could Dance"
Letter of the Day: Ff for fish
Book: Hooray for Fish! by Lucy Cousins is one of my favorite storytime books. The illustrations are bold, colorful, and BIG. This is a great book to check out and take home too since the pictures lend themselves well to lots of "what" questions for you and your toddler to discuss.
Movement: "The Goldfish" song by Laurie Berkner. I usually do this with the Pre-schoolers, but the toddlers totally go the hang of this song! Our little fish like to take naps, swim around, and do silly things like take showers.
Flannel: We reviewed concepts like "big and small (or little)", "happy and sad", and "polka dots and stripes"
Finger Play: We did a "new" finger play that was one of my favorites as a kid when I went to storytimes.
There was a little turtle.
He lived in a box.
He swam in a puddle.
He climbed on the rocks.
He snapped at a mosquito.
He snapped at a flea.
He snapped at a minnow.
And he snapped at me.
He caught the mosquito.
He caught the flea.
He caught the minnow.
But he didn't catch me.
