Our theme for our last story time before Summer Reading starts will be penguins. Our star book will be If You Were A Penguin which was chosen by Pennsylvania for the 2009 One Book Every Young Child title. To learn more, go to http://www.paonebook.org/

We'll be using glue and tape, but hopefully I'll have everything cut out before hand so we can keep the scissors away from all the little fingers.

Happy Mothers Day to our wonderful Moms!

Well with Miss Andrea being sick lately, and missing the Monster story time, we got a little off track here. Today we read and sang about Mothers! Be sure to let mom know how much you love her on Mother's day. We made our magnet picture frames just for her.
