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.
Five Senses [ tune: "Bingo"]
There are five senses that we all know
Can you help us name them?
See, hear, taste, touch, smell
See, hear, taste, touch, smell
See, hear, taste, touch, smell
These are our five senses.
Five Senses Song [tune: "Old MacDonald"]
On my face I have two eyes. I use them every day.
they are used to help me see, when I work and play.
With a look, look here, and a look, look there.
Here a look, there a look. Everywhere a look, look.
On my face I have two eyes. I use them every day.On my face I have one nose. I use it carefully.
I just sniff, then I can tell, When something is smelly.
With a sniff, sniff here. And a sniff, sniff there.
Here a sniff, there a sniff. Everywhere a sniff, sniff.
On my face I have one nose. I use it carefully.In my mouth I have one tongue. I use it when I eat.
Tasting with it I can tell, The sour from the sweet.
With a lick, lick here, and a lick, lick there.
Here a lick, there a lick. Everywhere a lick, lick.
In my mouth I have one tongue. I use it when I eat.On my head I have two ears. That listen all day long.
And if I didn’t have them there, I couldn’t here this song!
With a listen here, and a listen there.
Here a listen, there a listen. Everywhere a listen, listen.
On my head I have two ears That listen all day long!On my body I have skin, That feels the cold and heat.
It stretches from atop my head, Way down to my feet.
With a touch, touch here, And a touch, touch there.
Here a touch, there a touch. Everywhere a touch, touch.
On my body I have skin, That feels the cold and heat.
Hokey Pokey Senses [tune: "Hokey Pokey" ]
Hokey-Pokey
You put your fingers in,
You put your fingers out;
You put your fingers in,
and shake them all about.
You do the hokey-pokey,
and you turn yourself around.
That’s what it’s all about!You put your blinky eyes in….
You put your listen ears in….
You put your sniffing nose in …
You stick your tasting tongue in…
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.
Hope to see you at our next Antioch Preschool Storytime!
