Terrific Twos Storytime- April Fools!

I have never been more grateful for a group of caregivers than I was this week. This group of adults is always so involved and loves participating, but this week in particular I think would have fallen a little flat if I didn't have so many adults willing to sing and dance silly songs with me. So if anybody from my Wednesday 2 year old group is reading this- thank you!

If You’re Ready For a Story
If you’re ready for a story clap your hands (clap clap)
If you’re ready for a story clap your hands (clap clap)
If you’re ready for a story, if you’re ready for a story
If you’re ready for a story clap your hands (clap clap)
If you’re ready for a story stomp your feet (stomp stomp)
If you’re ready for a story stomp your feet (stomp stomp)
If you’re ready for a story, if you’re ready for a story
If you’re ready for a story stomp your feet (stomp stomp)
If you’re ready for a story wave hello
If you’re ready for a story wave hello
If you’re ready for a story, if you’re ready for a story
If you’re ready for a story wave hello

This Is Big Big Big
This is big big big, this is small small small
This is short short short, this is tall tall tall
This is fast fast fast, this is slow slow slow
This is yes yes yes, this is no no no

ABCs

Open/Shut Them
Open shut them, open shut them
Give a little clap clap clap
Open shut them, open shut them
Put them in your lap lap lap
Creep them crawl them, creep them crawl them
Right up to your chinny chin chin
Open wide your little mouth—but do not let them in!

Peanut Butter Dance
First you spread the peanut butter, then you spread the jam
You put a slice of bread on top and eat up all you can
Then you take your sticky fingers and you wipe them on your pants
And do a little wiggle for a peanut butter dance!

Do Donkeys Dance? by Melanie Walsh
*Huge hit with 2 year olds. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a silly toddler book- it was perfect for toddler humor.

Storytime is over now, over now, over now
Storytime is over now—see you next time!
