Pretty Parrots

 

I've been thinking of a Pirate Storytime theme and of course I needed Five Pretty Parrots! These were a bit tedious but I'm so pleased with my pretty parrots!  I deconstructed and tweaked a Google image to make my set. I can use these to play our favorite game, "Which One is Missing?". The kiddos never get tired of that activity.  After we've finished the rhyme I say, "Let's play a game!" We review the colors of the parrots and then I say, "Cover your eyes". I step in front of the felt board and reach behind me to grab one of the parrots. I step aside so that they can see the board and then I say, " Open your eyes"! They love it!  The older kids get it quickly and the younger ones learn how to play quickly too!      Here are other Pirate posts; Pirate Treasure and Ahoy Matey!.  

Pirates and parrots can be a lot of Fun with Friends at Storytime!

Two Delicious Pickles!

 Happy Summer time! Just in time for picnics I have a new finger puppet set.  Here are my Two Little Pickles.  I just used a Google image and jazzed them up with fabric paint, and googley eyes.  These two make me smile 

Two little Pickles in the fridge being chill.

One is Sweet and the other is Dill.

Roll away Sweet… Roll away Dill.

Come back Sweet...Come back Dill.

Two little Pickles in the fridge are so chill!

One is Sweet and the other is Dill.  

Be sure to smile when you say 'sweet' and pucker up after you say 'dill'.  LOL!

Yummy pickles are so much Fun with Friends at Storytime!
