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.
Mommy [tune: BINGO]
I love her and she loves me,
And Mommy is her name-O,
M-O-M-M-Y , M-O-M-M-Y, M-O-M-M-Y
And Mommy is her name-O!
I Really Love My Mother!! [tune: The More We Get Together]
I really love my mother, my mother, my mother,
I really love my mother, I love her so much.
She feeds me and clothes me, she hugs me and kisses me.
I really love my mother, I love her so much.
Mother's Day [tune: Are You Sleeping]
We love mothers, we love mothers,
Yes, we do! Yes, we do!
Mothers are for hugging.
Mothers are for kissing.
We love you, yes, we do!
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.
