Sounds Storytime for Babies, Wednesday, February 3 @ 10:30
Books: Quiet, Loud by Leslie Patricelli. I love ALL Patricelli's books and this one is perfect for showing quiet and LOUD! Snappy Sounds , one of those noisy board books by Harwood, I introduced: "Now we will be quiet again and read a book. Reading books is such a nice, quiet thing to do." The moms really did get quiet at that point -- so that you could almost hear the barking and meowing and cheeping noises that came from this silly book -- except since when do bunnies go B-o-i-n-g? I skipped that page. The text is cute and rhymy. Gooble Gooble Mooooo Tractor Book by Jez Alborough. Might need to shorten a bit for the very young ones, but Alzborough's created a perfect amalgamation here of animal sounds and machine sounds. Peek-a-Boo by Marie Torres Cimarusti. This is a very nice peekaboo book about simple, unscary Halloween creatures: an unscary witch, an unscary skeleton, an unscary ghost, etc. Songs: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with my little pitch pipe is
