March Library Lady Visits

  This last March I went out to a local preschool for a special storytime.  This storytime was part of their “We Love Books Month” celebration.  The children were great listeners and loved the scarf activities we did after the stories.

SCARF ACTION CHANT:

Fishing, Wishing Song (I learned from a PCLS Sharing Music with Young Children STARS class)

I’m going fishing, fishing, fishing;
And I’m wishing, wishing, wishing;
For a – jumpy fish!
(jump around or throw scarves into the air)

I’m going fishing, fishing, fishing;
And I’m wishing, wishing, wishing;
For a – spinning fish!
(spin scarves)

I’m going fishing, fishing, fishing;
And I’m wishing, wishing, wishing;
For a – hiding fish!
(hide scarf in your hand behind your back)
