The Ants Go Marching One By One, Hurrah! Hurrah!

BUGS STORYTIME

Storytime was all about Bugs this week.   The children enjoyed picture books  such as I love Bugs by Emma Dodd, and The Big Bug Book, a pop-up book by David Carter.  

Morning Program

We enjoyed making our bug magnet craft, and wearing our bug antennae.  However, our favorite activity was marching like ants, while singing the old time favorite,  The Ants Go Marching One By One, Hurrah!  Hurrah!  


Morning Program


Afternoon Program

We ended  with a picnic for the little ants, and  for the children as well! Since April is National Poetry Month, we read Step Gently Out by Helen Frost, and Face Bug, poems by J. Patrick Lewis, while enjoying a snack.  The children were fascinated by the beautiful photographs of bugs. We all agreed that bugs are interesting creatures, but we'd prefer if they didn't come to our next picnic!
