Great for color recognition and the kids caught on and began saying "Wow" with me!
Adorable book about neighbors, friendship, and night and day animals.
Oh my, this one is adorable and they got a kick out of seeing what happens to his scarf in the end!
We talked a bit about animals that sleep in the day and stay awake at night, and vice versa. I ended up using a flannel board called "Five Little Owls" and "Day and Night Critter" props. Both are things that other librarians have made (we collectively make flannel boards across all four libraries and share them with each other). Our craft to finish storytime was an owl die cut that they glued to a black sheet of paper, then glued on very large googly eyes. After they finished their craft, I let them use the dry erase board and draw owls with various sizes of circles (I had a how-to there for parents to reference). I ended up having a lot of interesting looking owls!
