To save on my planning time I use a lot of the same materials between my 3 year old program and my 4/5 program. So there will be a lot of repetition in the Storybook Fun posts from time to time.
Opening Activity:
Little Mouse flannel board game with musical notes hiding under the houses
Opening Song:
"These Are My Glasses" by Laurie Berkner from Whaddaya Think of That
Book:
Mole Music by David McPhail
Jazz It Up Moment:
Read and listen to Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes by Eric Litwin
I played the song on the iPod and used the flannel pieces as a storytelling prop. A lot of the children are familiar with the book so this was a fun new way to grab their attention and allowed them to sing (and dance) along with me.

Be Quiet, Mike! by Leslie Patricelli
Closing Rhyme:
Reach for the Sky
Clap your hands, touch your toes,
Turn around and put a finger on your nose
Flap your arms, jump up high
Wiggle your fingers and reach for the sky!
What I Didn't Have Time For:
A variety of books:
- Boom Chicka Rock by John Archambault
- The Remarkable Farkle McBride by John Lithgow
- Down by the Station by Jennifer Riggs Vetter
I love Be Quiet Mike. So fun!
