Toddler Storytime – The Color Red
My first storytime this morning went very well – the kids were very attentive to all the stories which was amazing and although the kids had trouble with they rhymes in Down By the Bay, they still really enjoyed the songs and the adults in the room helped with the…

Preschool Storytime – 5/12/2015
My preschool storytime went very well this week! Of course, I mentioned to my co-worker that I haven’t had more than 10 kids all session long and this week I had probably 15-18 kids. Everyone did a really great job – the kids really enjoyed all three stories, especially Round Like…

Toddler Storytime – Baby Theme
I don’t think I did it on purpose, but all my books this were were about babies! Both of my storytime groups were fairly small today – 10 kids. But for the most part, the kids really enjoyed the stories and loved the teddy bear song from the wiggles. I…

Toddler Storytime – Themeless and Fun!
I don’t know what was going on this morning, but my kids were absolutely amazing in storytime! They loved Mighty Dads (we created hand movements for each type of truck), loved saying “hello” to the pizza man and really boogied with Shake, Rattle, & Roll. Overall, the kids just did a great…

Toddler Storytime – Tap the Magic Tree (Earth Day)

Preschool Storytime
I really liked my book choices this week – fun stories that the kids giggled over all storytime! I think they’re favorite was Robot Zombie Frankenstein which also happens to be one of my favorites – they thought all the costumes were so silly! I also chose to use a lot…

Theme-less Toddler Storytime
My storytimes this morning were a little crazy – the first one probably has double the people registered than my second one, but fewer people show up. My second storytime had some walk-ins which made the group bounce off the walls a little. You always end up with one kid…

Family Storytime – Tigers
I must be on some sort of subconscious jungle adventure in my head, as last Saturday I did an elephant theme and today I did a tiger theme. I’m not going to argue as both storytimes have gone really well. Although I didn’t have a large group of kids –…

Storytime Theme: Elephants
I had a storytime on Saturday morning, a fairly new adventure for us as we have shied away from Saturday programming for a long time. But, we’ve been testing the waters this winter/spring and have gotten great responses by offering a storytime on Saturday mornings for families that work. It…
