N is for Noel (Preschool and Two's)

Preschool Storytime:

Opening: Big Books


Book: Click, Clack, Ho, Ho, Ho!
*The kids were so cute today with their reactions! What I did was take an empty box and covered the outside to look like bricks. As I'm reading, my volunteer takes all the puppets and sticks them inside my chimney. It's really fun to act out this story while you are reading it.


Fingerplay/Flannel: Five Little Gingerbread Jumping on the Bed
*Instead of monkeys we acted like gingerbread cookies jumping up and down today.


Book: Dream Snow
*At the last minute I changed out what book I wanted to read, since the crowd was really young today. I am so glad I did! The kids loved guessing what animals were hiding beneath the snow.


Fingerplay: Five Little Candy Canes

Book: What Am I? Christmas
*I didn't read all of this book, only about half.  But the kids loved guessing what was hiding out inside my book!

Fingerplay: Rudolph's Noses
*I believe I got this fingerplay from Mailbox.  You change out the nose on Rudolph, and each nose has a rhyme that goes along with it.  For instance, when Rudolph has a black nose you say the following.  Rudolph, Rudolph, nose so black.  Rub your tummy and pat your back.  The kids had a lot of fun telling me the colors and doing the actions too.

Today our craft was a Christmas wreath!













*I love dressing up for the kids, and I decided to wear my Santa dress for them!














Time for Two's Storytime:

Opening: Big Books

Book: Dear Santa
*I really enjoy using this book with the two's, and they seemed to enjoy all the presents in the book.

Fingerplay: Five Little Candy Canes

Fingerplay/Flannel: Gingerbread House Game

Book: Dream Snow
*At the last minute I changed out what book I wanted to read, since the crowd was really young today. I am so glad I did! The kids loved guessing what animals were hiding beneath the snow.
