Preschool Storytime:
*This is our registration week for SRP, and it was so busy for storytime! I was hoping to have a good crowd, but never expected our attendace this morning. We had 45 kids today and I was so excited to see everybody this morning! I'm hoping for even more next week, we'll see what happens!
Book: A Bear Sat on My Porch Today (With Puppets)
*I have to say, my favorite part of this book was
when the skunk appeared. Why? Because the
skunk puppet happened to spray water on all of us!
This was followed by lots of screams of excitement
and laughter!

Book: How to Find a Fox (With puppet)
*My volunteer was behind me, and to make this
book more interactive, she had a fox puppet.
All throughout the book, she would pop up the
fox puppet to get the kids riled up. Oh my, did
they ever shout and scream at me to catch that fox!
Did I? Of course!

Action: Forest Animal Flash Cards
Action: Fishing Skit
*The last thing I did for storytime was try to catch a
big fish! Of course, I caught lots of others things first,
an octopus, sock, houseshoe. When I finally caught
a fish, it was a very small fish, not the big fish that
kept popping up. The best part of this was when I
leaned over my puppet stage to try and see that big
fish. You know what's coming...that big fish popped
right up and scared me!

This is the first forest theme storytime I've ever
done and it was a huge hit! The kids went crazy
over everything we did, and I had way too much
stuff planned. Many of it I didn't include here, but
I have in store for future storytimes. I highly
recommend doing this theme, it was so much fun!

Our craft today was a paper bag raccoon and I
had no idea how much fun the preschoolers would
have with it. I was a little worried there were too
many parts to it, but not for the preschoolers. They
ran around with their raccoons and had a grand time
with them!
