Books:  

Gerald the elephant discovers that there is something worse than a bird on your head-- two birds on your head! Piggie will try to help her best friend.

"Listen to the birds! They are often very noisy. You can tell what kind of bird it is just by listening. It's fun to learn their sounds and to sing along"--

Activities:

During the activities, we listened to bird calls on Spotify!

There Is a Bird On Your Head Balancing Challenge

Unfortunately, I did not snap any pictures of this game.  I made a pretend bird nest using brown construction paper, a Styrofoam bowl, and tape.  Then, I placed an Easter egg in the nest.  The children got to take turns balancing the pretend nest on their heads and walking around the library.

Interactive Birds' Nests

There will not be any Preschool Story Time programs next week because Muscle Shoals City Schools are on spring break. (the week of 03/24/19 through 03/30/2019)

As always, let us know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.

Thank you all for supporting our library!
