I have to say that I am getting very excited about my cousin's upcoming wedding. It is not just because I am maid of honor, or only because I love the two of them so much. I think it is because it is NOT my wedding that I find myself ooohing and ahhing over dresses, tiaras, and invitations and I am not one bit stressed (the bride, however...). Anyway, we managed to get a lot done this weekend, including the all important spa appointment. Bliss! The Invention of Everything travelled with me, but I wasn't on the train long enough to really put a dent in it. Plus, lets face it, riding the train is fun! I guess if I had to do it everyday wouldn't think so, but I thought it was great.
Tonight's storytime followed the same format I use for all of my day storytimes as I have temporarily suspended my idea of doing storytime in reverse in order to get the kids sleepy. They only seem to run out into the library to pick out movies and books and the effect is lost. So here is what we did tonight. Our theme was teddy bears, but our night storytime is always wear jammies, bring a lovey, and low action. My opening song is Hello Bubbles which I learned from Read Sing Play here . BTW this woman is a storytime goddess and I have picked up many great ideas on her blog. Story the 1st: The Red Hat by Lita Judge Why? Because I want to get across to my kids that books do not always have to have words in order for us to "read" them, and I want to give pre-readers a chance to feel proud they finished a book on their own. I plan to try to read or highlight at least one wordless read for the next couple of storytimes. Flannel Board: Ten in the Bed I used a mod
