Story Time: Rain, Rain, Go Away!

We had an AWESOME day at Story Time this morning. Given the vast amounts of rain we've been having I figured it was only appropriate to read a whole bunch of stories about rain. We read:

The Rain Stomper by Addie Boswell
If Frogs Made Weather by Marion Dane Bauer
Rainy Day by Patricia Lakin
Are You Ready To Play Outside by Mo Willems

For our craft activity we made little umbrellas. Come and check them out hanging up in the children's room.

We also sang my favorite campfire song "There's a Hole in the Bottom of the Sea." I even made this fabulous felt board illustration to help everyone sing along. Because you know:

There's a fly on the tongue of the frog on the bump on the log on the hole in the bottom of the sea.
There's a fly on the tongue of the frog on the bump on the log on the hole in the bottom of the sea.
There's a hole, there's a hole,
There's a hole in the bottom of the sea.
