Mommies, May 2nd and 3rd, 2012

Begin by singing Raffi’s Shake My Sillies Out.

Book: I Love My Mommy by Giles Andreae and Emma Dodd.

Poem: My Mother Has Gone Crazy by Suzanne Wunder from the book, I Invited a Dragon to Dinner and Other Poems to Make You Laugh Out Loud, illustrated by Chris L. Demarest. We used puppets and props to tell this poem.

Book: Mother, Mother, I Want Another by Maria Polushkin Robbins; illustrated by Jon Goodell. 

Song: Over in the Meadow from the Raffi cd Baby Beluga. We used some animal pictures on a magnetic chalkboard while we sang the song.

Story: Monkey Face. We told this story using pictures on a magnetic chalkboard.

Story: Busy Mother.

Book/Song: Down By the Bay by Raffi; illustrated by Nadine Bernard Westcott. We used a mother puppet to help sing this song.


Puppet Show: My Mom Is Better than Your Mom based on the story by Andy Griffiths from the book, Guys Write for Guys Read. We used puppets as well as transparencies on the overhead projector to perform this funny story.

Craft: Mommy Hug. We let the kids trace and cut out their hands with construction paper and then connect them with a piece of yarn which was the same length as their arm span. This way they were able to show their moms just how much they love them!
