Here are the rhymes and songs from today:

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 Like Dinosaurs  [tune: Twinkle, Twinkle]

I like dinosaurs so much,
I wish they still lived with us.
Some were big and some were small
Some were fierce, but not them all.
I like dinosaurs so much,
I wish they still lived with us.

Dino-Pokey [Tune: "Hokey-Pokey" ]

Put your claws in. Put your claws out.
Put your claws in and scratch them all about.
Do the dino-pokey and turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about.

Put your teeth in.... chomp them all about...
Put your feet in... stomp them all about...
Put your tail in... wag it all about...

 

Dino Laid an Egg  [Tune: "This Old Man" ]

Din -no - saur, She laid one,
She laid one egg, then was done.

Chorus:
Oh-oh, dino eggs,
She lays them one by one.
She lays eggs until she's done.

Di -no -saur, She laid two.
She laid two eggs, that were blue.  Chorus

Di -no -saur, She laid three.
She laid three eggs, By a Tree.  Chorus

Di -no -saur, She laid four.
She laid four eggs, will there be more?  Chorus

Di -no -saur, She laid five,
She laid five that hatched ALIVE!  Chorus

 

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!
