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.
I'm a Little Chicken ( tune: "Little Teapot" )
I'm a little chicken, short and fat.
Covered in feathers with a tail in back.
When I get real hungry, I flap my wings,
and look for bugs and yummy things.
Ten Fluffy Chickens
Five eggs and five eggs, that makes ten. [Hold up two hands]
Sitting on top is the Mother Hen. [Fold one hand over the other]
Crackle, crackle, crackle; what do I see? [Clap three times]
Ten fluffy chickens, as yellow as can be! [Hold up and wiggle ten fingers]
Baby Chick [tune: "Brother John"]
Are you in there, are you in there,
Baby Chick, Baby Chick?
When I get real close,
I think that I can hear a
Click-click-click, click-click-click.Daddy, Daddy, come here quickly!
Help me check, help me check,
Do you hear what I hear?
Do you hear what I hear?
Peck-peck-peck, peck-peck-peck.Breaking out now, very slowly,
First a head, then a beak
What’s that game you’re playing?
What’s that game you’re playing?
Hide and seek, hide and seek.
I Know a Chicken by Laurie Berkner
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!
