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 Little Porcupines  [Tune: "Ten Little Indians" ]

One little, two little, three little porcupines.
Four little, five little, six little porcupines.
Seven little, eight little, nine little porcupines.
Ten little porcupines standing in a line.

Ten little, nine little, eight little porcupines.
Seven little, six little, five little porcupines.
Four little, three little, two little porcupines.
One little porcupine looking so fine.

 

Two Little Hedgehogs  

Two little hedgehogs 

Sitting on a hill.

One named Jack 

And the other named Jill.

Roll away, Jack.

Roll away, Jill.

Roll back, Jack.

Roll back, Jill.

 

Five Little Porcupines [tune: "Five Green and Speckled Frogs"]

Five little porcupines

Sittin' in a crooked line

Eating the most delicious bark.

Yum! Yum!

One heard a scary call.

Rolled up into a ball.

Now, there are four little porcupines.

 

 

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.
