Spring 2018 Preschool Storytime: Week Eight 4-24-18

And that's a wrap on Spring 2018 Preschool Storytime!  Wow!  This session flew by!  The kids did such a great job and really enjoyed hearing picture book "classics".  This summer I am going to focus on classic authors and highlight several of their books in each program.  We're also going to focus on kindergarten readiness skills since many of my munchkins in attendance, my daughter included, are headed that way this Fall.  I also brought back on old fan favorite as our closing song.  Total storytime club atmosphere!
