Couldn't come to story time today? No need to worry. You can create the experience at home using the story time we did today.


Books 

Diary of A Worm by Doreen Cronin

Houdini The Amazing Caterpillar by Janet Pedersen

Movement Song

Insect Song

(Tune: "The Wheels on the Bus")

The firefly at night goes blink, blink, blink
blink, blink, blink, blink, blink blink
The firefly at night goes blink, blink, blink
All around the town.

Additional Verses:
The bees in the flowers go buzz, buzz, buzz...
The ants in the grass go march, march, march...
The cricket in the leaves go chirp, chirp, chirp
The caterpillar in the field goes creep, creep, creep

Song

Bugs  (Tune: "Frere Jacques")

Big, bugs, small bugs, big bugs, small bugs,
See them crawl on the wall?
Creepy, creepy, crawling, never, never falling.
Bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs.

Rhyme

The Eensy Weensy Spider

The eensy weensy spider went up the water spout
out came the rain and let the spider out
out came the sun that dried up all the rain
and the eensy weensy spider went up the spout again.
