Building Bridges

THE PLAN

Playtime
We played with a bunch of toys this morning, and to my surprise, many people came to Storytime!

Beginning Song
First we shook out our wiggles.  The kids know the beginning song really well.  They helped me wake up Toby, and then we were on our way!

Two Little Hands
See this post for our Two Little Hands rhyme.

All About Today
Friday's weather was cold and sunny.  We finally decided that the season was Spring!  

Read & Listen:
We read Muncha! Muncha! Muncha! by Candace Fleming today.  The kids were engrossed in the story.  They wanted to know what kind of fence the farmer was going to build next.  The bunnies were adorable as well.

Learning Time:
The farmer makes walls around his garden to keep the rabbits out, so we decided to make bridges for Storytime.  I created some types of bridges made of folded paper before Storytime, so we placed those bridges on top of two plastic cups.  We then placed some of our round magnets on the tops of the bridges to see which design would hold the most weight.  The winner?  A piece of card stock folded into thirds!
