Budding Bookworms Wanted! Lapsit Story time (1-2 year olds) Topic: St. Patrick's Day

"Spring Into Reading" with a bright and interactive song and dance-filled story time. Welcome to Budding bookworms Lapsit Story time (Mondays a 10), where story time and play time are combined. We'll shake our wiggles out, sing, tell flannel board stories, read a book or two and have loads of fun. We use items such as egg shakers, streamers or bubbles to bring our story time to life. Bring your doll or teddy bear along so they can enjoy this week's story. 









This week's story time topic is St. Patrick's Day. We will bring the story time to life by reading one or two of these books: Lucky Tucker by Leslie McGuirk and A Rainbow of My Own by Don Freeman.

Here's a little song that will have Irish eyes smiling.

We Are the Leprechauns 
(Tune: Laurie Berkner's "We Are the Dinosaurs")

We are the Leprechauns, dancing, dancing.
We are the Leprechauns, what do you think of that?
We are the Leprechauns, dancing, dancing.
We wear a green hat, we wear a green hat.
And we're bold, we stop and look for gold,
We stop and look for gold, at the end of the rainbow.
Yes, we're feeling bold, we stop and look for gold.
We stop and look gold, then you hear us say...Ahye shamrocks.
We are the Leprechauns, dancing, dancing.
We are the Leprechauns, what do you think of that?
We are the Leprechauns, dancing, dancing.
We wear a green hat, we wear a green hat.
