Jungle Books, Safari Hats and More

momstown Milton's babies, tots and moms gathered at Lowville Park for our celebrated monthly book club. Everyone enjoyed listening to Jan Brett's The Umbrella and Marianne Berkes' Over in the Jungle: a Rainforest Rhyme.

Keeping with July's jungle theme, wee ones and their moms created fantastic safari hats and binoculars, using paper plates, bowls and toilet paper rolls.

What do you think of these?

There's a Rumble in the Jungle

momstown Milton moms, tots and babies recently explored the sights and sounds of the jungle. Well, ok the sights and sounds of Lowville Park.

We added the jungle part.

Our adventure began with circle time songs

and a read-aloud.

Puppets enhanced our fingerplay

And the coloring... well, that's just plain fun!!

Soon it was time to get crafty. We filled paper towel rolls with seeds and then painted them with interesting designs to create rainsticks.

In the end, we meandered through the creek and scampered across the brush while impersonating the animals in the jungle.

momstown Milton hosts a themed event once a month, as well as several weekly events. Join us for a free two week trial, click here.

Baby/Tot Book Club

Our jungle theme continues at our Baby/Tot Book Club! Snuggle up with your child and build their natural sense of rhythm while listening to Over in the Jungle: A Rainforest Rhyme, by Marianne Berkes.

Jan Brett's The Umbrella will further engage your child's imagination as they discover the wonderful world under a rainforest canopy.

Crafts, songs, chants and role-playing will bring these books to life and extend each child's literary experience.
