Hey Diddle Diddle

 

I saw the cutest felt set of Hey Diddle Diddle on the blog, Flannel Board Fun! I adapted it a little and made me a set to use for storytime at the library.  Nursery rhymes are a fun way to introduce rhythm and vocabulary to preschoolers.  We're doing a moon theme soon and I really wanted a cow to jump over the moon!  Hey Diddle Diddle is always Fun with Friends at Storytime!

 

Space Friends!

We're winding down our Summer Reading space adventure but I wanted to share this Rhyme/Story flannelboard set.  I used some pieces I already had and added the rocket and made up a new story/rhyme that used them all! 

Here's the link for Space Friends.  

My rocket was inspired by Mr. Keith at felt-tastic Flannelboard Fun Time!! I had already posted about Astronaut Amy Here!  We have had so much Fun with Friends at Storytime this summer!  

I See the Moon!

      

I love variations of the Little Mouse, Little Mouse hiding game.  I found this rhyme on so tomorrow blogpost .  I tweaked my rhyme and pattern a little and since I have a circle diecut I just used it for my moon. I added some shiny glitter glue and we are all set for some fun! This will be a great time to use Laurie Berkner's wonderful song, 'Moon, Moon, Moon'. I sing this song as a lullaby when my grandsons sleepover!  Here's my take on the rhyme:    

                            Little moon, little moon, playing hide and seek

                            Are you behind the purple*  cloud? Let's take a peek!

Just change the color at * each time.  I also hide a small star shape behind the other clouds til we 'find' the sleepy moon! LOL!  They love this game. 

Singing and playing are so much Fun with Friends at Storytime! There are more great ideas on the Flannel Friday Roundup! Check out the wonderful resources on the Flannel Friday Pinterest Boards. Here's the link for the official Flannel Friday blog for more info!
