Camping Storytime June 18

Come try out our microscopes!

We have brand new hello and good-bye songs! It was great to have our storytime kiddos in the Library again... my Wednesdays just were not the same without them!

Hello Song: 

Let everyone clap hands like me.
Let everyone clap hands like me.
Come on and join into the game.
You'll find that it's always the same.

Let everyone wiggle like me.

Let everyone sing out like me.

Let everyone open books like me.

Let everyone sit down like me.

Book: Olivia Goes Camping

Song to dance around to: Boatman's Dance on "Can You Canoe" by The Okee Dokee Brothers

Book: I Can Go Camping by Edana Eckart

Movement activity:
I can sleep in a tent (make triangle)
I can cook over a fire (fizzles noises and wiggle)
And I can travel by car tire.  (roll arms)

I love to camp (hug self)
And stay up til dark (stretch up)
To watch the stars (point up)
And the fire spark (fizzle and wiggle)

I can swim in a lake (swim)
I can take a hike (walk in place)
I can look for animals (look around)
And I can ride my bike (hold handlebars)

I love to camp (hug self)
And stay up til dark (stretch up)
To watch the stars (point up)
And the fire spark. (fizzle and wiggle)

Book: Scaredy Squirrel Goes Camping by Melanie Watts

Poem: Two Voice in a Tent at Night from Toasting Marshmallows by Kristine O'Connell George (an volunteer who can read was needed)

Goodbye Song (mostly by Jim Gill - i added another verse):
We clap our hands when we get together.
Clap our hands to celebrate.
We clap our hands when we get together.
My friends and I can hardly wait....

To stamp our feet....

To bounce up and down...

We wave goodbye when we're done together,
Wave goodbye until next time.
We wave goodbye when we're done together.
Wave goodbye until next time.

I Am a Bubble and bubbles
