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.
Love Your Pets [Tune: "Row, Row, Row Your Boat"]
Love, love, love your pets,
Love them every day.
Give them food and water too.
Then let them run and play.
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
The one with the waggly tail.
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
I do hope that doggie's for sale.I don't want a bunny or a kitty,
I don't want a parrot that talks,
I don't want a bowl of little fishies,
You can't take a goldfish for walks.How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
The one with the waggly tail.
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
I do hope that doggie's for sale.
Puppy's Dog House
This is puppy's dog house. [Put tips of fingers together]
This is puppy's bed. [ Hands flat, palms upward]
This is puppy's pan of milk. [Cup hands together for bowl]
So that he can be fed.
This puppy has a collar, [Encircle neck with fingers]
With his name upon it, too.
Take a stick and throw it, [Make throwing motion]
And he'll bring it back to you! [Clap.]
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!
