Horse Storytime

Storytime for 1-1/2 to 3 year olds:
  • Bridge - Open, Shut Them (fingerplay)
Open, shut them
(open and close hands)
Open, shut them
Give a little clap (clap)
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Put them in your lap
(put hands in lap)

Creep them, creep them
Under your chin
(creep fingers up chest)
Open your mouth, but don't put them in
(do as words say)

Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Give a little clap
Open shut them
Open shut them
Put them in your lap 
  • Book #2 – Clip-Clop by Nicola Smee
  • Activity – Ponies In a Meadow (fingerplay, I have had this one for a long time, not sure where it came from)
Ten little ponies in a meadow green
Friskiest ponies I've ever seen
They go for a gallop, they go for a trot
They come to a halt in the big feed lot
Ten little ponies fat and well fed
Curl up together in a soft straw bed
  • Closing - Rhythm sticks using "Goin' On a Bear Hunt" from Kids In Action by Greg and Steve
  • Craft – Color pens on a horse shoe coloring sheet
