Rainbows!

Toddler Storytime

Click Here for entire toddler outline.
Books:
Wow! Said the Owl by Tim Hopgood
   This book seemed like a good choice before storytime but I think it's definitely better for preschool. It was a little too long for my toddler groups. I asked the kids if they were wearing any of the colors in the books to help keep their attention.

Duckie's Rainbow by Frances Barry
   The story isn't all that exciting but it's cool how the book is shaped like a rainbow. Each page turn adds a color and the last page reveals the full rainbow.

Rhyme:
You need 6 different colored houses, hide a mouse behind one of them.

Little mouse, little mouse,
Are you in the red house?
Knock, knock, knock!

Remove the house to see if the mouse is there. Continue with each house until you find the mouse.

Activity:
Wave colored scarves to pop bubbles.

Craft:
Rainbows
