1. Introduction: “Hello, welcome to lap-sit storytime. My name is Ms. Debbie and with me is Ms. Peggy. We are both so happy to see you are here today. We encourage you all to participate and to do the rhymes and songs with your children. You know your children best, so if they are not in the mood, don't force them, but do encourage them. Sometimes when they see you joining in, they will too. We expect a fair amount of craziness during storytime, but that is okay. If your child becomes disruptive, please take him or her out of the program room, and join us again when your child has settled down. Don't feel bad, it is okay. Let's start with our opening song.
2. Opening Song:
It is Time to Say Hello
Lyrics:
It is time to say hello to all my friends.
It is time to say hello to all my friends.
It is time to say hello.
Give a smile, wink an eye.
It is time to say hello to all my friends.

3. Early Literacy Aside: Explain
Our early literacy tip of the day is on background knowledge. Background knowledge is simply what a child knows. Children are naturally curious about so many things including the food that they eat, or the food they see others eat. Today, I will point out things you can do to help your child develop this, which will later help your child understand what they read.
(Ghoting and Martin-Diaz, 2013, p. 136)
4. Action Rhyme:
Pat-a-Cake
Hold your baby's hands while reciting the rhyme.
Lyrics:
Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker’s man,
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Pat it and roll it and mark it with a B,
And put it in the oven for baby and me.

6. Sign Language:
Facing your child, use the sign for more, together, happy and friends.
Lyrics:
The more we get together
Together, together
The more we get together
The happier we'll be
'Cause your friends are my friends
And my friends are your friends
The more we get together
The happier we'll be

7. Action Song:
The Baby Hokey Pokey
You put your right hand in, you put your right hand out, (extend babies right hand in and out)
You put your right hand in, and you shake it all about! (extend babies right hand in and then shake babies right hand)
You do the hokey pokey, and you turn yourself around, (help baby dance in lap)
That’s what it’s all about!
You put your left hand in, you put your left hand out, (extend babies left hand in and out)
You put your left hand in, and you shake it all about! (extend babies left hand in and then shake babies left hand)
You do the hokey pokey, and you turn yourself around, (help baby dance in lap)
That’s what it’s all about!
(Adapted idea from State Library of Iowa. n.d.)
8. Early Literacy Aside: Example: Researchers have noted that one of the best predictors of student learning is what children already know before they begin to study new material. (Ghoting and Martin-Diaz, 2013, p. 13). Talk to babies about their daily routines and activities, such as eating different types of food.

10. Flannel Board:
Star Light, Star Bright
Put a large star on the flannel board
Star light, star bright,
First star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight.

11. Action Song:
The Wheels on the Bus
Bounce your child gently as you sing the song to him/her.
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
Round and round, round and round. (rotate hands round and round)
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All through the town!
(Credit: childhood)
12. Early Literacy Aside: Empower: As you read books about various topics that your children are interested in, don't hesitate to add information you know on the topic as well, even if it is not included in the book. Children learn about the world from everything you say and do. (Ghoting and Martin-Diaz, 2013, p. 139).
13. Closing Song:
It is Time to Say Goodbye
Lyrics:
It is time to say goodbye to all my friends.
It is time to say goodbye to all my friends.
It is time to say goodbye.
Give a smile, wink an eye.
It is time to say goodbye to all my friends.
(Credit: Jbrary. 2014, April 21).
