Goodbye Rhyme
Craft: Clothespin Llamas! I did this for a couple of reasons. First, it required no purchase of extra materials - we already had clothespins and paper and markers available at the library. Second, using clothespins helps small children with their fine motor control, and most of the children at my storytime put more than the requisite two clothespins on their llamas, which was fine by me. The more they take those off and put them on, the stronger their fingers are, which will make so many aspects of school - writing, cutting, etc. - much easier for them.
