Playtime
We have a puzzle or some sensory toys out at the beginning of Storytime. After we are done playing, the children grab their name tags and put them in the basket.
Two Little Hands
See this post for our Two Little Hands rhyme.

All About Today
Friday's weather was cold and sunny, and the kids were excited about the snow!
Learning Time:
This session is devoted to learning about the letters of the alphabet. The children use flashcards to match up the letters that I show them on the bean bag. I usually use 6 letters each session for matching so it doesn't take too long.
Read & Listen:
We read Fancy Nancy: Splendiferous Christmas by Jane O'Connor. The illustrations were done by Robin Preiss Glasser, and they were phenomenal (that's fancy for good)! The kids loved the details, especially when the house becomes decorated after turning the second page.
Special Activity:
As our special activity this week, we made Fancy Necklaces!
 |
| Making our bead and straw necklaces! |
 |
| Both of them were working really hard... |
Ending Song:
No ending song today but I will leave you with this photo. The bead necklaces took a lot of time, and the kids really enjoyed making their own fancy things!
 |
| Everyone sat together nicely at the end. |
