If You Give a Pig a Pancake

With a bubblebath scene, a grand entrance from the top of a staircase for a tap dance, some furniture rearranging for a photo shoot, and the building and decorating of a TREE HOUSE - this one just may be my favorite!

We'll conclude our Laura Numeroff month by celebrating pigs and pancakes.

FINGERPLAYS

TWO MOTHER PIGS:

Two mother pigs lived in a PEN.
Each had four babies and that made TEN!

These four babies were as black as NIGHT.
These four babies were pink and WHITE.

But all eight babies loved to PLAY,
As they rolled and rolled in the mud all DAY.

At night with their mother they curled up in a HEAP,
And squealed and squealed until they went to SLEEP.

Shhhhhhh...

MAKING PANCAKES:

Mix a pancake, stir a pancake,
Poor it in a PAN.

Fry a pancake, flip a pancake,
Catch it if you CAN!

A great big thanks to Diana and Lauren for lending me their book this week. I'm off to purchase my own copy!
