Blogging A to Z: Letter X

Letter X.jpg
During the month of April, I’ll be participating in the Blogging From A to Z Challenge.  My theme for the month is Storytime Plans From A to Z.  Each plan will have eight stories as well as four songs, fingerplays or rhymes to match the theme!  As you can see, I’ll try and attribute where I found all of this fun (and often you can find it in multiple places).  My goal is to make storytime planning a little easier on myself in the future and to make storytime planning for other librarians easy as well!

A Taxi Is a Car
A taxi is a car,
A taxi is a car,
You tell the driver where to go,
And then you ride that far.

sits so still
Will he come out?
Yes, he will!
