Welcome To Storytime! [tune: Twinkle, Twinkle]

Welcome, welcome everyone,
Now we're here, let's have some fun.
First we'll sing the ABC's,
then we'll read and sing with me.
Welcome, welcome, everyone,
Now we're here let's have some fun.

 

Ants Go Marching 

The ants go marching one-by-one Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants go marching one-by-one Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants go marching one-by-one, the little one stopped to suck his thumb
And they all went marching, Down, around town, Boom, Boom, Boom

The ants go marching two-by-two...little one stops to tie his shoe...

The ants go marching three-by-three...little one stops to climb a tree...


Itsy Bitsy Spider 

The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain,
and the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again.

 

Ladybug Spots [tune: Muffin Man]

Ladybug has 1 black spot, 1 black spot, 1 black spot.
Ladybug has 1 black spot, Pretty Ladybug.
Ladybug has 2 black spot, 2 black spot, 2 black spot.
Ladybug has 2 black spot, Pretty Ladybug.

 

The More We Read Together [Tune: The More We Get Together]

The more we read together, together, together,
The more we read together, the better it is!
'Cause reading and singing and talking together,
Is how you learn the six skills for reading by six.
