Storytime is Back!

After taking off a week to go see grandkids in Wisconsin, I am back in the library, and storytime is back on schedule. Here are the kids I went to see---Katya (8) and Jeff (5). It was a fun-filled week of birthdays parties, skateboarding, soccer, eating lunch in the cafeteria, back-to-school night, and reading bedtime stories, but alas, I had to come home.

Today was a day for reading fun stories like Worms for Lunch? by Leonid Gore, Today is Monday, by Eric Carle, and Not a Box, by Antoinette Portis. We also sang the Days of the Week Song, to the tune of Clementine:

There are seven days, there are seven days,
There are seven days in a week.
There are seven days, there are seven days,
There are seven days in a week.

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.

Pretty basic, eh? If you need a little help with this, you can look at this Preschool Corner version.

There are a couple other days of the week songs, such as this one (British) and this one (to the tune of The Addams Family.)  No shortage of ways to sing your way from Sunday to Saturday.
