It's summertime and picnics are on the schedule. I've done some other posts for PICNIC that needed one more fun activity! I have an interactive rhyme about a jar of pickles for our lunch. I made a large jar shape and added the light grey lid shape with silver fabric paint. I made about 30 pickle circles with felt and used dark green fabric paint for the peel and white fabric paint for the seeds. I can hand out the pickles and tell the kiddos to listen as I give a clue. I then say, "If you're wearing sandals today, bring up your pickle and add it to my jar.". I'll continue with different clues, If your name starts with (say a letter); or if you have a dog for a pet... We'll celebrate together when the jar is full of pickles! Pickles are so much Fun with Friends at Storytime!
