Discussion: Letter of the week: D. Found the letter D in name tags. Kids brought things from home that begin with the letter D. Van-dog, Avery-doll, Eden-Dad, Lincoln-dragon, Jett-drill.
We talked briefly about Sue the T Rex and the dinosaurs found in Montana with the "Dinosaur Trails Map".
Book:
Too Many Dinosaurs – Meyer
Activity/Magnet Board: Dino Dig – nwf.org
The only sand I could scrounge up was tube sand, but it worked pretty well. I put magnets on the back of the bones so that we could put the pieces up on the magnet board after they were "uncovered".
Book:
Oh Say Can You Say Dinosaur? – Worth
What I Learned: Great having the kids from the daycare here today. Hopefully they will come again if I call them and remind them. The kids loved digging for the dinosaur bones. I will get a bigger tub for the bones next time I do this activity and let the kids just play in the sand afterwards. This storytime was in December and "Santa" called the day before and said he could come in and read to the kids. He insisted that I sit on his lap and tell him what I wanted for Christmas, which was so embarrassing and completely inappropriate. I will have to inform him of Storytime etiquette next year (or get a different Santa).
