Spilling the beans about Story Time

It's amazing what you can do with just some dried beans, glue and paper. These were the materials we used on Tuesday to create one of a kind artwork. We have some amazing artists here at Story Time and it appears they can work with just about any material I give them- way to go story time crafters!

We also enjoyed National Geographic Kids Oceans By Johnna Rizzo. Puffer fish, green sea turtles, jumbo jellyfish, and great white sharks- you'll find everything under the ocean and more.

Making friends can be difficult sometimes, so what colorful lengths will black crow go to make friends? Read Crow By Leo Timmers to enjoy this tale about one lonely crow and his three potential friends.


Big is big, right? Well, big might depend on viewpoint and in Thomas Docherty's book Big Scary Monster, one "big " blue monster learns that point of view can change your status and demeanor.

Three mice find three jars of paint, causing a lot of color commotion. You'll learn just what happens when three white mice mix red, yellow, and blue in Ellen Stoll Walsh's book Mouse Paint. You can say this story is saturated in fun.


Join the fun every Tuesday morning. I look forward to seeing you :-)
