Home

'Home' is always a nice, cozy, topic in the dead of winter which is why I decided to return to it. Plus, there are always so many great picture books about houses and homes.

Books:
Room for Bear - Ciara Gavin
Nest - Jorey Hurley
Welcome Home, Bear - Il Sung Na
The Napping House - Audrey Wood


Repeat Activities (from previous Home storytime):
1. Whose House? 
2.  Little Mouse 
3. The Napping House Flannel Storytime 


New Activity:
1. A House is a House for Me
Flannel story from book by the same title by Mary Ann Hoberman
*each insect/animal in the story has Velcro backing so they stick to their homes and you can add them as you tell the story

A hill is a house for an ant.

A hive is a house for a bee.

A hole is a house for a mole or a mouse,

and a house is a house for me!

A web is a house for a spider.

A bird builds its nest in a tree.

There is nothing as snug as a bug in a rug,

and a house is a house for me!
