What Was Read: Stories in the Park, Week of June 24

Summer Events are in full swing here at Wissahickon Valley Public Library! We started our Stories in the Park Series on the week of June 24. Ms. Tegan is going to two parks this year!

• On Tuesdays at 10:30 AM until July 30, I'll be at Wentz Run by the playground.
• On Thursdays at 10:30 AM, until August 1, I'll be at Oxford Park by the playground.

 What We Read (note: you can count these titles in the summer reading log if your child attended).

• One Dark Night by Lisa Wheeler ; illustrated by Ivan Bates - JJ WHE - On a dark night, when the moon disappears, Mouse and Mole get lost and hear something! What could it be?
• Let's Dig and Burrow by Anna Nilsen ; illustrated by Anni Axworthy - (Request) - What animals like to "Dig and Burrow" in this story?
• Underground by Denise Fleming. - JJ FLE - Under the ground, there is lots to see. What do you see?
• Monday The Bullfrog - This puppet is a book! The book is in his mouth! Monday the Bullfrog is a hungry frog and he eats lots of yummy-to-him things.

What We Did

• Sang my favorite opening and closing songs: "If You'd Like to Hear a Story" and "The More We Read Together" 
• At Wentz Run, I shared a little rhyme about a Little Mouse who hides behind a rock, tree, hedge and hill. We played two rounds, but had to stop because the wind kept winning.
• At Oxford, we sang "Ten Little Earthworms" to the tune of a popular song.
• We acted like little mice with a rhyme called "Walk Little Mouse."

Join us at the parks this summer where we'll sing songs and read stories!

*Please note, on July 9, I will be at Morris Arboretum, but Miss Sally will be there to read stories!
