I have never had a child scream and run and poke other children so much in a storytime. I gave the parent hints in the beginning about keeping the child from blocking other kids, leaving if she is unhappy, and that sort of thing but to no avail. I had to ask her to leave. I felt bad
not as bad as my throat is feeling from yelling over the kid.
Anyway, here is what I did.
Books: Get Out Of My Bath! by Techentrup
Who's In the Tub by Jones
Game - Colored Bubbles
I got this one from Pinterest from Kathryn Roach
Songs:
Open Shut them
Shake your sillies out
If you're happy and you know it
Bathtime by Raffi
- We did bubbles while listening
What a Miracle by Palmer
The child I spoke of was not really a bad kid, just excited. If the parent had kept better control over her...making sure she didn't block the book, not poking other children, I would have been okay with the loud screaming...I think.
Not the best but I have next week off for the week of the 4th.
Happy 4th!
