Book: Little Mouse's Big Breakfast
*I absolutely love using props with this book. I have some boxes covered in white paper and I tape a little mouse to one. Then I have the food made that the mouse takes during this book. Near the end, the mouse trips and all the food falls. When this happens I reach up and knock all the boxes to the ground. Since the virus hit, I have a new group of kids attending storytime. At first they were shocked and then they loved me doing this!

Action: Five Little Mice
Five little mice came out to play, gathering crumbs along the way.
