Preschool Storytime - Bathtime

Opening
The More We Get Together (And Read Together): Storytime Welcome Song by Jbrary

The more we get together, together, together
The more we get together
The happier we'll be
For your friends are my friends
and my friends are your friends
The more we get together
The happier we'll be


The more we read together, together, together
the more we read together
the happier we'll be.
Read big books and small books
Read short books and tall books
The more we read together
the happier we'll be.


Books
Animal Baths by Bob Barner
Get Out of My Bath by Britta Techentrup
King Bidgood’s in the Bathtub by Audrey Wood

Songs
Wiggle Your lah-De-Da by Ralph's World for All Around Ralph's World

This is the Way We Wash Our Hands
This is the way we wash our hands
 wash our hands, wash our hands 
This is the way we wash our hands 
So early in the morning. (head shoulders knees and toes )

Rhythm Sticks
Tapping On My Sticks by Kathy Reid-Naiman for I Love to Hear the Sounds

Ten Little Bubbles - We tapped our sticks instead of clapping hands.
One little, two little, three little bubbles,
Four little, five little, six little bubbles,
Seven little, eight little, nine little bubbles,
Ten little bubbles go pop! pop! pop!


Felt Board
Inspired by JenInTheLibrary's Bathtime Storytime

1 elephant in the bathtub going for a swim. 
Knock, knock (clap hands for each knock) 
Splash, splash (pat lap for each splash) 
Come on in! (Wave hand invitingly)

Repeat to 5
5 elephants in the bathtub going for a swim. 
Knock, knock (clap hands for each knock) 
Splash, splash (pat lap for each splash) 
And they all fell in! (Knock all the elephants and tub off the felt board!)

Closing
We Clap Our Hands Like This - Tune Farmer in the Dell. Borrowed from Opening/Closing Songs on Storytime Katie who borrowed it from Rhymes for Toddlers on Sunflower Storytime.

We clap our hands like this
We clap out hands like this
We clap our hands with all of our friends
We clap our hands like this.

We blow a kiss like this
We blow a kiss like this
We blow a kiss with all of our friends
We blow a kiss like this.

We wave goodbye like this.
We wave goodbye like this.
We wave goodbye to all our friends
We wave goodbye like this.


Craft
Using a coloring sheet off the internet featuring a large rubber duck in a bathtub, we used blue finger paint to color in all the water and all the bubbles.
