Guesting at Dole

So I subbed for Lori this AM at Dole, for a Family Open ST. I took along lots of stuff, so I'd be ready for whatever ages showed up. As it turned out, I did the same exact books and stretchers from my 2s ST yesterday, and it went very well. Seriously, there were 18 kids, and I'd say 2 of them were 1 years, 2 were 4 year olds, 2-3 were 3 year olds, and all the rest were not-so-terrible 2s. Anyway, here's the books I did:

They all were received well, but the biggest hit was definitely Walking through the Jungle. And even though JN was gagging at the cheesiness of the rhyme when I briefly showed it to her yesterday, the "5 Little Mice" flannel was a lot of fun to do - I hammed up the ending, having all the mice running for shelter while the kitten chased them around, until only their tails were showing, at which point the kitten tickled those tails with its whiskers. Finally, the biggest bear puppet continues to be a golden ending, with kids coming up for bear hugs and kisses. Muy cute.
