Book: Good Night, World by Willa Perlman
Flannel: Five Flashing Fireflies (adapted from Ten Flashing Fireflies by Philemon Sturges)
What do we see in the summer night?
Five flashing fireflies burning bright!
Let’s catch the one twinkling there.
Now there is/are
one flashing fireflie(s) in our jar!
Additional: Continue adding fireflies until the jar is filled
Release the Fireflies:
Open the jar, for it’s much more fun,
Watching them fly away, one by one.
Fly out the window and flash good-bye.
Fly away, fly away, fly, firefly!
Five, four, three, two one.
Dash away, flash away. Now there are none!

Song: “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high.
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
