Frogs...

For storytime this week, we learned about frogs and how they start out as tadpoles.  We sang this song to help us remember the changes.

Little Tadpole
(tune: Frere Jacques)
Little tadpole,
little tadpole,
Lost his tail,
Lost his tail.
Now he has two feet
Now he has four feet
Look a frog!
Look a frog!

Each week, we share a preliteracy skill for parents to practice that is listed on our handout. This week's was:

Even though young children do not understand the meanings of the rhymes, it is important for them to hear them.  By six months babies are already able to recognize the sounds of the languages they hear and are already losing those sounds they don't hear.

Also listed on the Toddler Time handout is our joke of the week:  What do French frogs eat?  French flies : ) 

Don't forget to come next Tuesday for our Bunnies storytime at 10:30 and 11:00 am!
