I'm making up posts again as I did this Emotion theme for storytime at the start of February, but I wanted to share these with you. Books : If You're Angry and You Know It - Kaiser & Pillo   - doubled as a song Bear Feels Scared - Wilson The Way I Feel - Cain The Pigeon Has Feelings, Too - Willems   - love these books! Feelings - Alkili Mrs. Biddlebox - Smith & Frazee   - I can't remember if I read this at storytime; it's kind of long but really cute! Glad Monster, Sad Monster - Emberly & Miranda   - didn't read this because I read it with the monster theme but would fit here too. image via Google Songs : If You're Angry & You Know It (along with the book) Craft : I had blank faces for the kids to decorate with emotions. I was going to do masks that they could decorate until I found these and thought they were really cute. image via u-create blog Results : I only got to read these stories once. We had 3 sn...

Oh goodness! I am not doing a very good job keeping up with this idea of storytime posts (I've only done the Monsters theme). I have missed THREE of them! Oops. I'll write next Saturday about the Emotions theme from early February. For now, on to pizza! Storytime Saturday: Pizza! Who doesn't love pizza?! Apparently at least one child in almost every preschool that I read to these past few weeks. Strange kids.  Anyway, I loved the books that I read to the kids. Books : Curious George & the Pizza - Rey (I can't find this on Amazon) Curious George & the Pizza Party - Rey (my version of this book is just called ...George & the Pizza, too) Secret Pizza Party - Rubin & Salmteri (which tended to be a better one-on-one book)    - When I read this one, I used a raccoon puppet which we've had for years "Hi, Pizza Man!" - Walter (this got the best laughs!) Pizza Pokey - Stoodt Pizza at Sally's - Wellington (the kids got a kick o...

Today was MOPS playgroup at a park across town at 10ish. So around 9:15 or so I decide we'll walk there and stop by the bank & library on the way to and from. I slather the boy with sunscreen & off we go. We stopped at the bank about halfway there & put A's check in the bank & talked to our favorite banker! We got to the playground a little bit after 10. By this time, Tristan is just tired. He was up at 7:45 & hadn't taken a nap yet. So we talked to our friend TA & I let him climb some of the stairs on the playground and go down the little slide. Then he was hungry so I gave him a bottle. He decided to be cuddly & lay on my shoulder until he heard baby R crying (TA's daughter) & so he played with her a bit. Then we sat around with his little "girlfriend," J. A little after 11 we decided to head home. We stopped by the library (which is about halfway home) & got a few Dr. Seuss books, a movie for Moose (Peter Pan), & a mo...
