Letter D Storytime was a blast! 📚

We read "Lena the Chicken (but Really a Dinosaur)" by Linda Bailey, made our own dinosaur dot paintings, and had fun building with magnetic tiles.

Lots of stories, creativity, and play to celebrate the letter D! 💙🦖

ABC Storytime Fun! 📚

We’ve been having so much fun exploring the alphabet during Storytime. This month, we explored letters A to C, our little learners enjoyed stories, activities, crafts, and songs!

🐊 Letter A: We read "Zebra and Yak: the Backwards Alphabet Book" by Paul Friedrich and made our very own alligators out of construction paper!

🐻 Letter B: After reading "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" by Bill Martin Jr, we used play dough to create each of the animals from the story.

☁️ Letter C: We read "Ploof" by Ben Clanton and then use cotton balls to make our own fluffy clouds!

Of course, no storytime is complete without a yummy snack! We had a great time learning and playing with our friends! 😃
