Family Storytime: Perseverance

Today's storytime theme was perserverance.  Our local school district had the day off of school, so there were older kiddos in attendance with their younger siblings.  

When planning out today's storytime, I needed to keep the older siblings in mind when I was selecting books and music. 

Click here to see how I planned for today's storytime.

Nursery Rhyme

Before I read After the Fall by Dan Santat, we recited Humpty Dumpty.  I added a little line at the end to lead into After the Fall.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king’s horses
And all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again

...or could they?

Recorded Music

These are the songs that we listened or danced to in storytime.  If you are interested in checking out these songs, the album cover images have links to Amazon where you can listen to a sample and purchase these great songs!

Other Activities

Pre-storytime activity: I am Proud
As families walk into storytime, I like to have a passive activity that they can do as they get settled in their spots and wait for storytime to begin.  This week, I created a prompt that I projected onto the screen where children could share something that makes them feel proud.
