\nAt infant storytime, we started with Grandma Rabbitty coming for a visit in Grandma Rabbitty’s Visit by Barry Smith. \u00a0She might not get there the way you expect! \u00a0This fun story features lots of different vehicles and got a chuckle from the caregivers. \u00a0After a hard day of play, it’s time for Bedtime Bunnies by Wendy Watson<\/a>. \u00a0We followed little bunnies through an onomonopeoic trip to bed.<\/p>\n
In the Toddler storytime, I couldn’t decide which book I wanted to share the most — there are so many good ones to choose from! \u00a0At 10 we found a way to play even when it rains with rabbit and mouse in Bunny Fun by Sarah Weeks, illustrated by Sam Williams<\/a>. \u00a0In both sessions we also played a game of hide-and-go seek with Peek-a-Boo Bunny<\/span> by Holly Surplice<\/a>, where we learned sometimes you have to slow down to spot everything. \u00a0In 11am, we also had Grandma Rabbitty visit.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Infant Storytime: Run\u00a0Run Rabbit<\/span> There once was a fox. Run, run rabbit Don\u2019t let him catch you We did this one as a bounce, so as the rabbit was running, the caregivers bounced their little ones on their laps.<\/p>\n Toddler Storytime:\u00a0The Giant Carrot<\/span> This is a fun retelling of the classic folk tale The Giant Turnip, or the Enormous Turnip.<\/p>\n In our nursery rhyme, we followed the path of Jack and Jill.<\/p>\n Jack and Jill Peppa and George have fun visiting Rebecca Rabbit’s house and learning how to be bunnies.<\/p>\n We had a lot of fun doing action rhymes at storytime!<\/p>\n INFANT STORYTIME<\/span><\/p>\n Peek a Boo To Market, To Market<\/span> Round and Round the Garden TODDLER STORYTIME<\/span><\/p>\n Two Little Feet<\/span> The library has a many more wonderful stories to read and get you bouncing!\u00a0 Visit your local Pasadena Public Library branch to read these or discover others.<\/p>\n Children\u2019s Room \u2013 Infant Toddler Storytime \u2013 3\/29\/2016<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Since this is the beginning of our Spring Storytime session, it seemed only fitting to do something super springy. \u00a0So we shared stories about rabbits and bunnies!
