Lapsit Storytime

Today's lapsit program was all about trains! Two of our toddlers even came dressed in their own conductor's hats! Feel free to try this morning's program at home.

Books: That's Not My Train by Fiona Watt
Train by Chris Demarest
Thomas the Tank Engine by W. Awdry
Fingerplay: This is a choo choo train (arms at sides with elbows bent)
chugging down the track (pump bent arms up and down).
Now it's going forward (push both arms forward).
Now it's going back (push both arms backward).
Now the bell is ringing (ring imaginary bell).
Now the whistle blows (cup hands around mouth).
What a lot of noise it makes (cover ears with hands) everywhere it goes!
Music: I've Been Working On the Railroad
Activity: Get several children together and walk around in a line as a train. Take turns being the conductor and the caboose!
