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.

 

Ten Good Friends [Tune: "Ten Little Numbers" ]

One good, two good, three good friends
four good, five good, six good friends
seven good, eight good, nine good friends
The ten best friends are we!

If You're Friendly [Tune: "If You're Happy and You Know It" ]

If your friendly and you know it, clap your hands.
If your friendly and you know it, clap your hands.
If your friendly and you know it, and you really want to show it,
If your friendly and you know it, clap your hands!
additional verses: stomp your feet, give a hug, shout hooray, sit down

 

Let's Be Friends 

Let’s be friends with one another
Let’s be friends with one another
Let’s be friends today!

You can sing with a friend,
you can shout with a friend,
you can hum with a friend,
you can jump with a friend,
you can clap with a friend,
you can hop with a friend

Let’s be friends with one another
Let’s be friends with one another
Let’s be friends today!

 

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!
