Faster! <\/a>by Leslie Patricelli, about an playful father who takes his enthusiastic daughter with a need for speed on a bouncing ride.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We celebrated Dad with a the song D-A-D-D-Y, to the tune of the classic children’s song B-I-N-G-O.<\/p>\n D-A-D-D-Y<\/span> There\u2019s someone who takes care of me For the next verse, replace the D with a hand to represent a clap<\/em>. Repeat until you are clapping for all 5 letters.<\/em><\/p>\n For our Nursery Rhyme flannelboard we shared Jack Be Nimble which can also be used as a bounce!<\/p>\n Jack Be Nimble<\/span> Trixie and her daddy visit the laundromat. \u00a0But some happens there that makes Trixie very upset. \u00a0Can Daddy save the day?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Looking for more fun stories featuring fathers?\u00a0 Come to your local Pasadena Public Library branch and pick up one of these titles!

\nWe started Infant Storytime with a sweet celebration of all types of dads in Laurel Porter-Gaylord’s\u00a0I Love My Daddy Because…<\/span><\/a>\u00a0 illustrated by Ashley Wolff. \u00a0Animals of all types share the things their fathers do that show love. \u00a0We kept the fathers-of-all-species celebration going with Daddy Hug<\/a> by Tim Warnes, illustrated by Jane Chapman, where all types of animal dads give different kids of hugs. \u00a0Why not act like animals at home and hug in all the ways the book shows?<\/p>\n
