Baby Storytime #9 - Mother's Day

Today I had a fantastic baby storytime!
My theme was Mother's day and I found some great stuff around the web.

Opening song – The more we get together (on the uke)

Bounce – Roll Roll sugar babies (jbrary)

Nursery Rhyme

The (New) Old Woman

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe

She had so many children and knew just what to do

She gave them some broth and a big slice of bread

Kissed them all soundly and tucked them in bed

Puppet story – Ask Mr. Bear by Flack - I changed this to be for Mother's day rather than birthday. Worked great!

Finger play – Five little monkeys jumping on the bed
Book - Is your Mama a Llama? by Guarino - a little long, skipped to the end

Action song – If you’re happy and you know it

Shaker song – Mother's Day Song (on the uke)

(Tune: You Are My Sunshine)

I love you mommy.

My dearest mommy.

You make me happy when I am sad.

 I want to show you How much I love you.

Here’s a hug For Mother’s Day!

And Oh what a Miracle! (I did this one sitting down and it worked great!)

Goodbye song – May there always be sunshine (on the uke) - I go around the room and get everyone's name. Maybe I will learn them eventually!
Bubbles song – Good Morning starshine
