Librarians, teachers, and others who work with toddlers will find a treasure trove of useful material in Toddler Storytime Programs. Part I of the book contains twenty-five theme programs which feature book suggestions, fingerplays, puppetry ideas, games, activities, songs, and crafts. Among the program themes offered are: Gone Fishing, Teddy Bear's Picnic, Jungle Safari, Yummy!, Daddy and Me, Toddler Snow Party, and Spring Fling. Part II features a collection of flannel board stories, poems, and songs with full-size reproducible patterns. Each selection coordinates with a program theme in Part I and has simple directions for successful storytelling. A literature index, an index to fingerplays, and a music appendix with guitar chords are also included.
...an especially welcome addition to the professional literature...will be very useful for the teacher or librarian responsible for creating an ongoing storytime program.
