Birds Story Time – Toddler

Opening Song

Book: Silly Little Goose! by Nancy Tafuri

Song: “The Wheels on the Bus”

Rhyme: “Fly Your Fingers”
Fly your fingers up,
Fly your fingers down!
Fly your fingers to the side,
And fly them all around!
Perch them on your shoulders,
Perch them on your head!
Perch them on your belly,
Then put them all to bed!

Book: Early Bird by Toni Yuly

Song: “Zoom, Zoom, Zoom”
Zoom, zoom, zoom,
We’re going to the moon.
Zoom, zoom, zoom,
We’re going to the moon.
If you want to take a trip
climb aboard my rocket ship.
Zoom, zoom, zoom,
We’re going to the moon.
In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,
Blast off!

Flannel: “Five Little Ducks”
Five little ducks went out one day,
Over the hills and far away,
Mother duck called, “Quack, quack, quack, quack,”
But only four little ducks came back.

Repeat with four, three, two, one, and no little ducks.

Scarf Song: “This is the Way”
This is the way we wash our arms,
Wash our arms, wash our arms.
This is the way we wash our arms
When we’re in the bathtub.

Scarf Song: “We Wave Our Scarves Together”
We wave our scarves together,
We wave our scarves together,
We wave our scarves together
Because it’s fun to do.

Wave them up high,
Wave them down low,
Wave them in the middle
Because it’s fun to do.

Scarf Song: “Popcorn Kernels”
Popcorn kernels (wave scarves overhead)
In the pot. (make their scarves ‘disappear’ by bunching them up in their fists)
Shake them, shake them, shake them (shake fists)
‘Til they POP! (toss scarves up into the air)
