"Monkey Business"

"Monkey Business"
@ the Library Storytime Today

Today we had the pleasure of Ms. Cindy bringing in her preschool groups from
the "Child's Play Preschool." It was so much FUN!! Great group of kids!

There was a little Monkey Business going on today with these wonderful books.

SONG: "5 Little Monkeys Sitting in a Tree"
5 little monkeys sitting in a tree

hold up five fingers

Teasing Mr. Alligator, “Can’t catch me!”

put thumbs in ears and waggle fingers
Along came the Mr. alligator quiet as can be

put palms together like an alligator mouth and weave back & forth

And SNATCHED that monkey right out of the tree!

open palms wide and clap loudly on “snatched”

"I'm a Little Monkey"
I'm a little monkey in the tree
Swinging by my tail so merrily
I can leap and fly from tree to tree
I have lots of fun you see.

I'm a little monkey watch me play
Munching on bananas every day

Lots of monkey friends to play with me
We have fun up in the tree.
