(The kids pretended to have their own fishes, but I should have had the foresight to make popsicle stick fish or something.)ĭid You Ever See a Fishy? (Tune of “Did You Ever See a Lassie?”)ĭid you ever see a fishy, a fishy, a fishyĭid you ever see a fishy, swim this way and that? I am trying to break out of my comfort zone by using more puppets. One little fish swimming straight for home I think if the kids were given the option, we would spend all of storytime reading just this book. You can turn the book rightside up again at the end and start over if you want to. Then, we you reach the end of the book, you turn the book upside down and count down from ten. I absolutely love this book - the counting is told in a cut-out format where one fish turns into two fish, and so on. We had a lot of side chatter during this book - “That’s MY favorite fish! The stripey one, Miss Katie!” - but no one lost interest! When we got to the “How many can you see?” spread, we had several little ones just start counting out loud, so we took a break and counted together which was an excellent practice for our next book…”Fish, Swish, Splash, Dash” by Suse MacDonald! The children loved looking at all of Little Fish’s friends. ![]() We started off with one of my favorite books - “Hooray for Fish!” by Lucy Cousins. Our theme for summer reading this year is “Make a Splash,” so we’ll be doing water-based storytimes for the next seven weeks. ![]()
