ABC and 1-2-3 (Two's)

Time for Two's Storytime
"ABC and 1-2-3"


Opening Fingerplay: Big Books

Fingerplay: "If You Want to Hear a Story"

Book: "Hickory Dickory Dock" (With puppets)

*The kids really enjoyed getting to see the animals run around the big clock that I made.  All in all a great read.

Fingerplay/Flannel: "Mice Dancing"
*I had little mice made out of construction paper, and we danced around with them before placing them on our flannelboard.  Check out this cute idea for placing the mice around the adorable clock!


Book: "Ten Little Ladybugs"

*My favorite thing about this book is as you turn the page, a ladybug will disappear from each page.  This never fails to amaze the two's.  I made ten ladybugs, and gave each one to the puppets as they appeared in the book.

Fingerplay/Flannel: "Ocean Animal Movement Cards"

Book/Flannel: "Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons"
*Sadly, I didn't get to read this book.  I always have little paper circles to represent the buttons, and when Pete loses his buttons in the story I throw my paper buttons on the kids. 

Fingerplay: "Alligator Story"
*Here is where I found this great alligator story.  I fed our alligator puppet magnetic letters as I told the story.  My favorite part is hearing a grandfather laugh with his granddaughter while I was telling this.  That's what I will always treasure about storytime, the memories that I am hopefully helping them make with each other.

Book: "Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons"

*A favorite book, and who doesn't love Pete the Cat!  We put up a coat with the four buttons on it.  As I read the book, a button was pulled off the flannel. I had small round circles cut out of construction paper.  When the button popped off, I threw handfuls of the circles out on the kids, representing the buttons flying.  They went crazy, and I did this for all four buttons.

Craft: Here is the website where we based our craft on.  We ended up only going through the number five.
