and licorice.

Looking for more ideas with the Kite theme? There are many, but I really liked the following "Kite Arts & Crafts" website: http://www.preschooleducation.com/akite.shtml

Song: Let's Go Fly a Kite

Let's go fly a kite.
Up where it's clear and bright.
Let's go fly, fly a kite.
* Song from the Movie "Mary Poppins"

Rhyme: Kites

The wind is blowing
With all its might.
The kites are tossing
In the sky.
The wind is calling,
"Come fly up high."

Month of May: Kite Books

Whoosh! The Month of May has blown a Tummy Time kite theme into the Bettendorf Public Library! The LibraryThing list of books includes books from our entire library system ~ place a hold if you see a title you would like if it isn't at the Bettendorf Library.

April Pig Activity

PIN THE LEGS ON THE PIG

Cut out the shape of a pig on colored paper without legs. Have your child clip the "legs" (clothespins) on the pig.

April Pig Rhymes

THIS LITTLE PIGGY
This little piggy went to market,
This little piggy stayed at home,
This little piggy had roast beef,
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy went
"Wee wee wee" all the way home.

TO MARKET, TO MARKET
To market, to market to buy a fat pig;
Home again, home again, jiggety-jig.
To market, to market, to buy a fat hog;
Home again, home again, jiggety-jog.

April Pig Craft

PIG NOSE CRAFT:
Cut out egg carton bottoms (part the eggs sit in). Let your child paint/color each section, punch two holes on opposite sides, then attach yarn to secure the nose.
