Bubbles!

THE PLAN

Playtime
We played with the gear toy today.

Two Little Hands
We stretched out our limbs and shook out our wiggles before doing our rhyme.  See this post for our Two Little Hands rhyme.

Beginning Song
See this post for our Beginning Song.

All About Today
Friday's weather was warm and sunny!  We finally switched from Spring to Summer!

Read & Listen:
We read two books today!  First we read Count the Monkeys by Mac Barnett.


Then we sang a couple of silly songs, all by Jim Gill!  The first one was Poison Ivy and then we sang Crazy Dance Song

We read another book, Daisy Gets Lost by Chris Raschka.



Goodbye Song
I changed it up a bit this Storytime.  We sang our goodbye song before the activity, so we could actually sing it.  We do Itsy Bitsy Spider for our goodbye song.  We also sang about the great big spider, the teeeeny tiny spider, and the rockin' rollin' spider.

Science Activity
We played with bubbles today!  I made a homemade bubble mixture using 6 cups water, 2 cups Joy dish soap, and 1 cup corn syrup.  They were supposed to be "indestructible" but they were just like normal bubbles.  Next time I'll use store-bought bubbles, or search for a recipe that doesn't include corn syrup.  We also had a birthday today!  One of our regulars turned 5 today, and he brought in cake pops to share with the rest of us.  They were chocolate (my favorite!).
