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!

 

Dental Health Fun!!

We had such fun this week doing a Dental Health theme for storytime. We had this great book and as we read the book we would add the felt piece that corresponded to the silly stuff she found in her teeth.  I had all of the pieces except the mouth already in my many felt sets.  The mouth was an easy make with some different patterns on the WEBS. lol. This was an effective and fun way to use pieces that I haven't used in years and keep the kiddos very engaged!  I also have a few other teeth related items that we did HERE and HERE.  We had a easy craft and table activity also! It was a BIG hit this week with our young patrons.  Dental Health is important and Fun with Friends at Storytime.

Two Hungry Hedgehogs

We just did a Forest Animals storytime and I had my Five Little Foxes felt set, Five Little Hedgehogs but I wanted 2 little hedgehogs, of course!  Meet Morris and Marie! I love them.  I used a couple of Google images to make my cuties.  They were a big hit!

Sniff away Morris, sniff away Marie.

Come back Morris, come back Marie.

Let's Make Some Guacamole!

 

So we're prepping for Hispanic Heritage month coming soon and I wanted a felt set for Storytime so of course I thought of guacamole! Here's my rhyme, Let's Make Some Guacamole!  I had made the lemonade pieces a few months ago and never used them and thought they'd be perfect with my guac!  I used some Google images to make some patterns but free handed the tomato and chips. I used glitter glue to make my segments on the lime and slick paint for the salt and pepper shakers.  I made up a rhyme and we're ready for Fun with Friends at Storytime!

Two Little Zebras

 

A new set of 2 little fingerpuppets!  Here is Zoe and Zane. They like to gallop on the African plain. I found a cute Google image to deconstruct for a pattern and used some hot glue and slick paint and here they are! Zebras are so much Fun with Friends at Storytime!
