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.
If You're a Lion and You Know It [Tune: "If Your Happy and You Know It" ]
If you're a lion and you know it, give a ROAR!
If you're an elephant and you know it, STOMP your feet.
If your a monkey and you know it, JUMP up and down, (ooh, ooh, aah, aah)
If your a crocodile and you know it, SNAP your jaws
Tigers and Lions [Tune: "London Bridge" ]
Tigers and lions come out to play, out to play, out to play.
Tigers and lions come out to play, in the jungle today.
Tigers stand up and lions sit down.Tigers stand up and lions sit down.
Tigers stand up and lions sit down.In the jungle today.
Tigers twist and lions hop, Tigers twist and lions hop,
Tigers twist and lions hop, In the jungle today.
Stand Up
Stand up and roar like a lion.
Hop like a gazelle.
Scratch like a monkey.
Snap like a crocodile.
Wave your wings like an ostrich.
Stomp like an elephant.
Yawn like a hippopotamus.
And now sit back down as quiet as a mouse.
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!
