I'm Dirty by Kate and Kim McMullan

Felt: 5 Pigs so Squeaky Clean
5 pigs so squeaky clean.
Cleanest pigs you've ever seen.
Wanted to go outside and play
IN THE MUD!
1 jumped into the mud,
Landed with a great big THUD
Now there are 4 pigs squeaky clean.
4...3...2...1

Song with Scarves: Dirt by Phish (if you have not listened to Phish before, please be aware that many songs are not public library children's program appropriate)

Bubble Bath Pirates by Jarrett Krosoczka

Repeat the Bubble Song - tried blowing bubbles at the kids, but it was all sorts of wrong as my bubble wand did not work well. On the list for purchase: a bubble blower!

A Look Inside a Burrow by Richard Spilsbury

Chorale Reading: The Carrot Seed by Ruth Krauss

Next, i brought out a child's play tunnel wrapped up in brown packaging paper ("soil") and we took turns crawling through it as everyone sang this song:
I can be a bunny.
I can be a mole.
Isn't it funny
Crawling through a hole?

We had SO many friends at the Library, we ran out of time for Diary of a Worm by Doreen Cronin.

Then we repeated the Wiggle Worm fingerplay.

Goodbye songs
