Storytime!- Rhyming Books

Books:


Duck on a bike
Duck On a Bike, by David Shannon
                             A duck on bike?  This is a winner!  The bold illustrations along with the rhyming text make for an excellent read-aloud.  Kids will love looking at all the farm animals and laugh along with you as they ride along with duck and friends.
                          
Sheep in a jeep
Sheep in a Jeep, by Nancy Shaw
                            Another great rhyming read-aloud.  The only problem is that the jeep won't go, oh no!  Little ones will once again laugh along as they watch the sheep try to get their jeep to go.

How do Dinosaurs say good night?

How do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?  by Jane Yolen
                             When it's time for bed do little dinosaurs jump and shout?  Your little one will love sharing this over and over again as they hear that little dinosaurs have to say good night too!

Five little monkeys jumping on the bed
Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed, by Eileen Christelow
                             This familiar rhyme is loads of fun as a read-aloud.  The illustrations capture the monkeys bedtime antics and the ending leaves everyone laughing!


Fingerplay:

Fingerplay: “Baby’s Nap”
This is a baby ready for a nap. (hold up index finger)
Lay him down in his mother’s lap. (place finger on open palm of other hand)
Cover him up so he won’t peep. (wrap fingers around finger)
Rock him till he’s fast asleep. (rock hands back and forth)
