The kiddos have really been enjoying the poems from Grumbles From the Town: Mother Goose Rhymes with a Twist that I have been sharing this session. Together we chant the original rhyme, and then I read the twist version. I'm thinking I might have to include some more fractured fairy tales in storytime because they really seem to like them. Hmmm....just had an idea. I should have a program where the older kids write fractured fairy tales for our storytimes! Stay tuned to see where that little nugget goes!
