Baby Lapsit: Baby's Day Week 3

Last week I fell victim to the dreaded stomach virus that has been making the rounds.  Every week I look forward to seeing my Lapsit Crew, so I had to binge watch the entire season of "Nailed It!" on Netflix to drown my sorrows.  

Even though I missed last week's storytime, I can still share my plan.  During our fall and spring storytime sessions, I like to create my weekly plans for my storytimes at the beginning of the month.  Yes, you read that correctly.  I plan a month's worth of storytimes in advance.  What can I say?  I like to be prepared.  #FormerTeacher

This week, our Lapsit Crew made two new friends.  One of our new friends made my day with their contagious enthusiasm: applause for stories and songs, happy gurgles, and a radiant smile. 

I also witnessed some not-so-secret guests participating in our storytime.  A couple of preschool aged children stopped playing in the play area and stood in the door way to sing and bounce along with us.  At one point, I saw them holding toy dinosaurs like they were babies.  They bounced and tickled the dinosaurs.  I had to keep myself from giggling and bursting from joy because that is hands-down the cutest thing I have ever witnessed while doing a storytime.  

Books

All Kinds of Kisses is a fabulous interactive book for caregivers and babies.  I had the caregivers help me make the animal noises.  The babies loved the animal noises and all of the kisses they recieved.

My Nursery Rhyme mission continues.  This week we read and recited "To Market" from Iona Opie's My Very First Mother Goose.  I had the caregivers gently bounce baby in their lap as we recited "To Market."

Bouncing Time is another great interactive book.  I encouraged the caregivers to bounce baby in their lap as I read the story.

Egg Shakers

We sang and shook our eggs to "Going to Kentucky" and "We Shake Our Eggs Together."  Both of these songs came from the amazing ladies of Jbrary.
*We only sang the first verse of the song. I had everyone sing "we're" instead of "I'm."  I also threw in a "hey!" at the end of the song for fun.
​

We're going to Kentucky,
We're going to the fair,
To see a señorita with flowers in her hair.
Oh, shake it, shake it, shake it,
Shake it if you can.
Shake it, shake it, shake it,
And do the best you can.
Hey!
*Instead of "we wave our scarves", we sang:

We'll shake our eggs together,
We'll shake our eggs together,
We'll shake our eggs together,
Because it's fun to do.

Shake them up high,
Shake them down low,
Shake them in the middle,
Because it's fun to do!
