Here are the stories and songs we presented during Baby Storytime at Jefferson Branch Library in March 2023.

 

Panda Bear, Panda Pear, what do you see? By Bill Martin 

Children see a variety of animals, each one a different color, and a teacher looking at them. 

 

Little Blue Truck’s by Alice Schertle 

Celebrate the beauty of springtime with Little Blue Truck! Young fans will love finding all sorts of baby animals beneath the flaps in this delightful novelty board book. Beep! Beep! Peep! 

 

I love all of Me by Lorie Ann Grover 

Rhyming text and colorful illustratons remind young reader to love everything about themselves, from the top of their heads to the tips of their toes. 

 

Songs

Opening Rhyme

 

Peek-a-boo

· Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo

(Cover face with hands two times)

· I see you! I see you!

(Point to children)

· I see your button nose

(Point to nose)

· I see your tiny toes

· (Point to toes)

· I see you! Peek-a-boo!

(Cover face with hand two times)

 

“One Finger”

· One finger

· One thumb

· One arm

· One leg

· One nod of the head

· And fall into bed!

(Pick baby up and bring down to your lap)

 

I Love You

· I love you

· Your button nose

· Your eyes, your ears,

· Your knees and toes.

· I love you

· Up to the sky

· Past the moon

· And stars so high,

· If you feel alone and scared,

· Always know that I’ll be there,

· Just like one and one makes two,

· You love me

· And I love you.

 

Ending Song

“Clap, Clap, Clap your Hands”

· Clap, clap clap your hands

· Clap your hands together

· Clap, clap, clap your hands

· Clap, your hands together

 

· Bounce, bounce, bounce up high

· Bounce, up high together

· Bounce, bounce, bounce up high

· Bounce, up high together

 

· Give, give, give a hug

· Give a hug together

· Give, give, give a hug

· Give a hug together

 

· Wave, wave, wave good-bye

· Wave good-bye together

· Wave, wave, wave good-bye

· Wave good-bye together
