Slippery Fish for the Felt Board








Slippery Fish, Slippery Fish,
Swimming in the water
Slippery Fish, Slippery Fish,
Gulp, Gulp, Gulp

This was one of the first songs I learnt in the Early Childhood Field. I worked one on one with a girl who was hearing impaired and she use to sign along with me to fish, eating and the "oh no!" by emphatically and joyfully putting her hands to her cheeks.

Later, when my son was a toddler, it was one of his favourite songs, and we use to sing it together. He loved the ending! Such fond memories

It is a classic song for young children.  Thank you Charlotte Diamond!

Bug Theme and the Felt Board

The other day a butterfly fluttered by, a fly was in my home and a spiderweb was attached to my car. A bug theme with young children is such a great idea when summer is around the corner. Here are some felt board suggestions for a topic all about insects. By clicking on the image you will be directed to a blog entry providing more information.
