Early Literacy Tip of the Week:
Get your little one actively involved in telling the story by pointing to objects in the book and naming them.

Good Morning

Hello, How are You?

Boots, Jacket, Scarf, and Hat
Sung to: “Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes”
Boots, jacket, scarf, and hat,
Scarf and hat.
Boots, jacket, scarf, and hat,
Scarf and hat.
In wintertime we dress like that.
Boots, jacket, scarf, and hat,
Scarf and hat.

Open Shut Them

Book One 
No Two Alike by Keith Baker

Where is Baby? (with scarves)
Sung to: “Where is Thumbkin?”
Where is baby? Where is baby?
There you are! There you are!
I’m so glad to see you, I’m so glad to see you
Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!
--ALSC

If You're Happy and You Know It (with scarves)
Sung to: "If You're Happy and You Know It"
wave your scarf, throw your scarf
hide your scarf, scrunch your scarf in your hands

Mix a Pancake
--from Lapsit Services for the Very Young II by Linda L. Ernst. New York: Neal-Schuman Publishers, Inc, 2001.

I Wiggle My Fingers

Book Two 

Four Little Snowflakes
One little snowflake with nothing to do,
Along came another and then there were… two!
Two little snowflakes laughing with me,
Along came another and then there were…three!
Three little snowflakes looking for some more,
Along came another and then there were…four!
Four little snowflakes having so much fun!
Out came the sun, and then there were none!

My Mittens
Mittens for the snow time,
          (Fingers flutter down like snow)
When the world is white,
Mittens for my two hands
          (Hold up two hands)
Mittens left and right,
(Wave left hand, then right hand)
Mittens with a thumb in place,
          (Thumbs up)
Mittens warm and snug,
          (Hug baby)
Mittens make me feel like
A bug inside a rug
          (Hug baby snug)
