We use lots of rhymes, songs, and fingerplays in our storytimes here at Dearborn Public Library, and one of our favorites resources is King County Library System in Washington. They have lots of fun rhymes, songs, and fingerplays and some even have videos to give you an example of how to sing or move your hands and body.
Our rhyme from today's Toddler Storytime comes from King County Library's Rhymes and Songs page.
Bears are Sleeping
Bears are sleeping,
Bears are sleeping.
(pretend to sleep)
In their lairs, in their lairs.
Soon it will be Springtime,
Soon it will be Springtime.
Wake up, bears. Wake up, bears!
(Wake up and stretch BIG)
Try it with your little one today!
