Summer Camp Storytime Week 3

I held a storytime session at the local summer day camp for 5- and 6-year-olds.  

Opening Song:

When Animals Get Up in the Morning (adaptation of a traditional song)

When pigs get up in the morning,
They always say “Good Day!”
When pigs get up in the morning,
They always say “Good Day!”
They say, "Oink!, Oink!, Oink!, Oink!,"
that is what they say.
They say, "Oink!, Oink!, Oink!, Oink!,"
that is what they say.

(Repeat with other animals that I randomly pull out of a cloth bag.)

 

  

Books:

Bear Went Over the Mountain by Jane Cabrera

Piranhas Don’t Eat Bananas by Aaron Blabey

Don’t Blink by Amy Krouse Rosenthal, illustrated by David Roberts

 

 

Craft activity: 

A color and cut sheet for “Bear Went Over the Mountain”.  (This ended up being the perfect craft activity.  Their attention span was fading and the children really needed the scissor practice.)
