Saturday's Story and Song Time

Old McDonald

Old McDonald had a farm, E I E I O.
And on his farm he had a cow, E I E I O.
With a moo, moo here.
And a moo, moo there.
Here a moo, There a moo.
Everywhere a moo, moo.
Old McDonald had a farm, E I E I O.

And you know, how the rest goes.

As always, Old McDonald is available in our etsy sh0p. http://www.weeknit.etsy.com/

Saturday's Story and Song Time

Did you miss me? So far I have been fairly consistent at blogging on a daily basis. Yesterday, it got away from me. After a phone call at 6:30 a.m., I had to rush through the morning routine so I could go sub at my oldest girl's preschool class. It was my first time teaching since I had my first girl (now 4). I'm glad to say I made it through relatively unscathed. But I truly understand that controlling preschoolers is a lot like herding cats. Next to impossible!

So it's Saturday which means it's story time. Today's story is Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Here's a handy link should you need it. So take a moment and share the classic tale of the little girl with the golden curls with your little ones.

And of course, WeeKnit's Goldilocks Finger Puppet Set is available at http://www.weeknit.etsy.com/

Saturday's Story and Song Time . . .

That's right. It's Saturday and it's our second edition of Saturday's Story and Song Time. So pry yourself away from that computer (I know it's hard but you can do it!), round up your little ones, and share with them the classic story of The Three Little Pigs.

In the event that you have found that your computer has actually become an extra appendage, here is a handy link you may find useful in sharing this classic tale with your tiny tots.

And of course, here are the puppets that inspired today's story choice.

The Three Little Pigs Finger Puppet Set

"I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down!" Bring the classic tale of The Three Little Pigs to life with these adorable finger puppets. This set includes three pig finger puppets, each with their own characteristics, and of course the big, bad, wolf. As always, available at www.weeknit.etsy.com .

Saturday's Story and Song Time

So here it is. My seventh blog. A full week's worth. Hmmm... I think I'm out of clever and insightful comments already. Perhaps, I am not as riveting as I thought.

In an attempt to entertain you and encourage reading with your children, I bring to you Saturday's Story and Song Time. Today's story is The GingerBread Man. So round up your little ones - pull out the book; tell it from memory; or click into this cute link I found (Topmarks The Gingerbread Man), and introduce your children to this classic tale. (Any one else notice that not all of these stories have happy endings?)

The GingerBread Man Finger Puppet Set

And today's storytime has been brought to you by none other than WeeKnit's Gingerbread Man Set. So run, run, as fast as you can. Hurry fast and you can catch this gingerbread man! Our six-piece set includes the sneaky fox, the old man, the old woman, the cow, the cat, and of course the gingerbread man. So please check it out in our etsy shop. http://www.weeknit.etsy.com/
