Triad Mamas: Library Storytime: Penguins

Little E and I are in love with library storytimes. We are so lucky to have such awesome children's librarians that come up with such great activities for them.

If you've ever been to stortytime, they generally involve a grown up reading a book or two and that's about it. Not here!! Storytime begins by finding a mat and picking your seat. Right away the kids are singing (and dancing) their hello song, followed by several stories, songs or finger plays, and ending with a craft. Each storytime has a theme (this one being penguins) and each story, song, and activity fits the theme.

This week we read four books, our favorite being "Quickly, Quigley" by Jeanne M. Gravois. We also build stand up penguins and colored penguin pictures.
