Time for 3's- Pigs


If You Give A Pig A Party- Laura Numeroff

Cornelius P.Mud, Are You Ready For Bed?- Barney Saltzberg (This book was such a hit)

Piggies- Audrey Wood & Don Wood

Pigs
Seven little pigs rolled in the mud-
Squishy, Squashy felt so good.
The farmer came, and took one out
“Oink, oink, oink,” the pig did shout.

(Continue with 6, 5, 4,…)

No little pigs rolled in the mud
They all looked so clean and good
The farmer turned his back and then
Those pigs jumped in the mud again.

The kids all loved Cornelius P. Mud, and some of the kids were interacting with the Piggies book. However it didn't occur to me that some kids would realize that your fingers and toes are considered "piggies". Did people stop doing that? Over all it was a good storytime.

Turkey
Five littler Turkeys by the barn door
One waddled off and then there were four
Four little turkeys out by the tree
One waddled off and then there were three
Three little turkeys with nothing to do
One waddled off and then there were two.
Two little Turkeys in the Noonday sun
One waddled off and then there was one.
One little turkey, better run away

Soon it will be Thanksgiving Day.

The kids really liked this, they were big fans of the Turkey counting rhyme and loved the hats.
