Preschool Storytime - Letter f

Today's 'f is for flower' craft

So many things that begin with the letter 'f!' Today, we read a silly story about a fish who desperately wants a friend, and a frightening Halloween story!! Here is a recap of what we read, sang and created today! Feel free to have your child bring an item to each week's program...search your house with your child for items that begin with the letter "g" for next week's program!

Books we read today:

"Swim, Swim," by James Proimos
"Old Devil Wind," by Bill Martin, Jr.

Songs we sang today:

 "The Goldfish Song" (Laurie Berkner)

Lots of little fish were sleeping on a rock
In the bottom of the ocean
They lifted up their heads
And they shook out their tails
And they said let's go swimming

Let's go swimming lets go swimming
Yeah let's go swimming
Let's go swimming let's go swimming In the bottom of the ocean
Then the little fish got so very, very tired
That they came back to the rock
And they put own their heads
And they put down their tails
And they took a little nap

And when they woke up
They decided to take a shower

So whey washed their hair
And they washed their ears
And they washed their tummies
And they washed their beards
And they washed their nose
And they washed their toes
And then they said

"Wait a minute, we're fish!
We don't take showers!"

Let's go swimming let's go swimming…
Then the little fish got so very, very tired…

And when woke up
They decided to brush their teeth

So they got out their tooth brush
And their toothpaste
And they squeezed a little on
They tried not to waste
And they put it in their mouth
They brushed north and south
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch
And then they said,

"Wait a minute, we're fish!
We don't brush our teeth!:

Let's go swimming lets go swimming…
Then the little fish got so very, very tired…

And when they woke up
They decided to ride their bicycles

So they rode to the left
And they rode to the right
And they rode all day
And they rode all night
They rode down the hill
And then faster still
And then they said,

"Wait a minute, we're fish!
We don't ride bicycles!"

Let's go swimming…
Let's go swimming…

 

"Looking For Dracula"

 

Looking for Dracula, but I'm not afraid

I've got binoculars, I've got my cape and my fangs.

Oh, Oh! What do I see?

A spooky swamp!

Can't jump over it
Can't go under it
Can't go around it
We have to put on the big rubber boots and go in it.

Looking for Dracula, but I'm not afraid
I've got binoculars, I've got my cape and my fangs.
Oh, Oh! What do I see?
A huge lake!
Can't jump over it
Can't go under it
Can't go around it
Okay, into the boat, we have to row
Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
Ha, Ha, fooled you, I'm a Submarine!

Looking for Dracula, but I'm not afraid
I've got binoculars, I've got my cape and my fangs.
Oh, Oh! What do I see?
A haunted house!
Can't jump over it
Can't dig under it
Can't go around it
Alright, we're going in. Open the door …
Here come all the bats. Watch out!
Let's sneak in.

Looking for Dracula, but I'm not afraid
I've got binoculars, I've got my cape and my fangs.
Oh, Oh! What do I feel?
A great big foot, with a great big body!
With a great big head, a great big fangs!
Get out of there! Quick!
*The Great Escape! Have fun with actions,
sound effects, costumes and your own ideas!
