Around the Pond

Ms. Eileen's Storytime Week 5: Around the Pond

Ms Patty has been on vacation (jealous!) so I'm not sure what her kiddies will be doing, but I was feeling springy and what better way to enjoy the outdoors than to explore around a pond...or lake for that matter!

Here are some of the books to share this week:

Happy by Mies Van Hout
Pond Circle by Betsy Franco
Pond Walk by Nancy Elizabeth Wallace
Song of the Water Boatman & Other Pond Poems by Joyce Sidman
(gearing up for poetry next week!)  
Trout, Trout, Trout! (A Fish Chant) by April Pulley Sayre
(never done this one before but the kids LOVED it!)
Turtle Splash! Countdown at the pond by Cathryn Falwell

Then we made our own little fish ponds out of paper plates, cut paper, ribbon and 'rocks'.

    1. Oops! Meant that as a reply. Thank you Cathryn! And I didn't mention Pond Babies but I just used it with the little kids the other day! We ADORE your books around here - I have been a fan ever since "Where's Nicky?"!
