Weekend Bonus - When a Dragon Moves In

Hi, my favorite munchkins!  I'm popping in on the weekend to add another book, but this one is not read by me.  It's actually read by a famous actor and I thought it might be fun to hear a story from someone else.  Enjoy!

#5 I Ain't Gonna Paint No More!

I'm a stickler for good grammar, but fun wins out over grammar in this adorable book. I hope all of you are doing well.  Sending lots of prayers and love your way from all of our Pre-K Team.

I Ain't Gonna Paint No More!
 Just so you know, YouTube gives me three choices for a thumbnail picture for each video. 
I'm pretty sure they have a prank department who chooses these because the above frame was the BEST CHOICE!  No lie.  So humiliating.

#4 Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

Today's book is a familiar one.  I''ll bet they can recite it along with me.  

CHICKA CHICK BOOM BOOM

Y'all, I hope you know how much I love your kids because these images I'm posting are cringe-worthy for me. I seriously want to crawl under a rock when I see them.  UGH!


A little something extra.

#3: A Unicorn Named Sparkle

I especially love this sweet story about a little girl named Lucy who wants to buy a special pet. I like this book partly because Lucy looks a lot like me (with black curly hair) and also because it's a really nice reminder of what happens when we open our heart when something or someone doesn't turn out quite how we would like.

#2 Duck, Duck, Goose

This book takes place on a farm and made me think of Mrs. LaRocca's Farm Friends!  You will notice all kinds of patterns in the book.  Maybe after you listen, you can show your family how you can make patterns with blocks, or snacks, or anything you have around the house.

Y'all bear with me.  Trying to film myself while reading backwards is going to take some time to master.    Thanks for hanging in there with me.

Are you ready for some stories? (#1: Olivia)

Well, we are one week into the corona virus quarantine, and I'm willing to bet the novelty is wearing off for our little Pre-K friends and their parents too.  So, since one of my favorite superpowers is reading children's stories, I thought I'd read you some stories so maybe we don't have to miss each other so much.  

I am starting this blog to keep connected to my favorite little quarantined munchkins and their parents. I'm going to have to get creative but between my daughter, Gianna, and I, we will try to come up with some entertaining content for you guys. 

Let's have some fun and know that Mrs. Lewis loves you!
