The mom’s and babies alike, got into the singing spirit to belt out familiar “rain” tunes. Once the first round of singing was complete, we did a reading of Rain, Rain, Go Away and watched as the babies took in the bright colors and faces in the book. The phrases are short and sweet and the board book makes it easy for little hands to grasp and turn the pages.
After one more round of singing, it was time for some sensory play. In light of it being a “rain” theme, the babies had an opportunity to have water play!!
Some of the younger ones just watched and took it in as the older babies were stripped down and got right into the spirit of splashing. Although they enjoyed the singing, and reading the book too, their favorite part of this program was making a big “rainy” mess!!
Congrats to our winner Jiya who was super excited to take home today's featured book! As always, thank you Scholastic Canada for another lovely book and thank you to Sharkey’s for providing us the space for our mamas and babies to hang out!
Looking forward to seeing what adventure we will take next month at our Scholastic Books for Babes Program. We hope you can join us!
