I have no idea where I first saw this particular idea, but I have been meaning to make a storytime cube at some point. Oh? You have no idea what a storytime cube is? Let me explain.
You take a square box. Any box will do but it can't be too large or too small, it needs to be just right. My box had graphics on it, so I covered each side with a square of construction paper.
Then, I put a picture on each side of the box as a symbol of a storytime song or nursery rhyme. When I pull out the storytime cube at storytime, I will gently roll it. Whatever it lands on is the song we will sing at storytime that day for that activity.
Songs on my cube:
1. Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
2. Wheels on the Bus
3. Two Little Blackbirds
4. Hokey Pokey
5. Zoom, Zoom, Zoom
6. The Itsy, Bitsy Spider
