Activity: Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear

Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Turn around,
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Touch the ground.
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Dance on your toes,
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Touch your nose.
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Stand on your head,
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Go to bed.
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Say good-night,
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Turn out the light.
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Wake up now,
Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Take a bow.

Book: Dinosaur vs. Bedtime by Bob Shea

Poem: Sleeping Sardines by Shel Silverstein from Where the Sidewalk Ends

Activity: Everybody Sleeps. We placed pictures of a bed, a crib, a nest and a basket on a magnetic chalk board. We then held up pictures of a boy, a baby, a bird and a cat and asked the children where each of them slept. We had fun putting each character in the wrong bed and asking is this correct?

Book: Tuck Me In! by Dean Hacohen

Final Activity: Counting Sheep i.e. Our Ernie puppet counted kids with sheep headbands jumping over a small fence.
