<\/a><\/p>\n\nWe sang Old MacDonald Had a Farm and then read a book called Dinnertime for Chickies<\/em><\/a> by Janee Trasler, in which a pig and a sheep are struggling to get the baby chicks to try new foods for dinner. If you liked the chickies book, you could also try Bedtime for Chickies<\/em><\/a> and Pottytime for Chickies<\/em><\/a>.\n<\/p>\n \nWe sang a song I picked up from the NickJR show Peppa Pig, called “I’m a Little Chick”:\n<\/p>\n I\u2019m a little chick saying cheep-cheep-cheep \nThen we told a story about five little chicks using our flannelboard:\n<\/p>\n \nWe guessed at the animals hiding in my I Spy box, and met a pig, a lamb and a cow. Then we read our second book, Peek-a-Moo<\/em><\/a> by Marie Torres-Cimarusti and illustrated by Stephanie Peterson. This is a great book for sharing with a group because the pictures are large and bright! I’m always happy with how that one works out for storytimes.\n<\/p>\n \nAfter that we sang the Peek-a-Boo song:\n<\/p>\n Peek-a-Boo, where are you \nWe did a fun felt activity where we matched the animal sounds to the correct animals:\n<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nI like to pick up food with my beak-beak-beak
\nI have a fuzzy yellow head and straw for my bed
\nAnd I jump up and down singing cheep-cheep-cheep<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nhiding in your…place! Peek-a-Boo!
\nPeek-a-Boo, I see you
\nand your smiling…face! Peek-a-Boo!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
