Buzzzz!

Start this rhyme by putting on the glove and hiding your hand behind the beehive.  Then say something like this: Do you know what this is? It’s a beehive!  Do you know what lives in a beehive? Bees!  And what sound do bees make? Buzzzzzzz.  Everybody buzz like a bee!  Keep it going…

Here is a beehive. Where are the bees?
Hidden away where nobody sees.
Soon they come creeping out of the hive (have one bee peek out)
1-2-3-4-5! BUZZ! (bring each finger out as you count)
(make your bees fly all around the hive)

Thanks, Sunflower Storytime for this great idea!

Mouse

This week my toddlers are learning about the letter N and Nursery Rhymes so on Monday they made a nest out of the letter N.

On Tuesday they made Humpty Dumpty.

On Wednesday, the boys made mice.

 On Thursday, the kiddos made buses out of egg cartons. Unfortunently, I have no pictures of that.

On Friday they made "The cow jumping over the moon."

N is for Nest:

Letter N

Bird

Circles for eggs

Brown strips of construction paper

Humpty Dumpty:

Don’t remember where we got this craft idea…

It’s all made out of construction paper  

Mice prep:

2 medium pink circles for ears

1 small black nose

1 large brown triangle

Cow jumping over the Moon:

Yellow moon

Yellow stars

Cow (we let the kids add spots if they wanted)
