Yoga Storytime – Summer Week #4
I didn’t see as many kids in my storytime yesterday as I normally do. I’m wondering if it’s a popular week for vacation. Otherwise, the kids seemed to enjoy the books this week – we talked a lot about different types of animals and I was able to introduce parents/caregivers…

Yoga Storytime – Summer Week #3
Storytime was a lot of fun today! The kids in my first group were excellent at paying attention to directions, listening to the stories and interacting. It was a great way to come back from a long weekend. My second group was smaller, but the kids enjoyed it just as…

Yoga Storytime – Week #2
The kids really loved our books this week! We had such a fun time reading and interacting. There has been such a positive response, that we actually opened a second class, so now I have two yoga classes back-to-back which can be a little hectic, but our patrons were very…

Yoga Storytime – Summer Week #1
My storytimes for the summer officially started yesterday and we have so many people on our waiting list, I’ll be doing my Yoga Storytime back-to-back. The room we use for our program isn’t very large, so we decided to smaller classes would be the best way to handle the class.…

Story Time Theme: Red
Today was our last storytime of the session and although I absolutely love storytime, this session has been rough! I don’t know what it was – the kids, adults, some combination of the two, but it seemed out of control each and every week. We’re changing the schedule a little…

Storytime Theme: Orange
I don’t know what’s been going on, but my story times have been absolutely crazy all season long! Last week, I had eight kids – it was absolutely nuts! This week, I probably had close to 20 kids, and even crazier. I think the biggest issue in this session is…

Story Time Theme: Yellow
We are continuing our color-themed story times this week with the color yellow! With only eight kids in attendance, I thought we’d be able to whiz through a lot of things, but the kids were very squirmy! Even so, I was able finally to use the nursery rhyme cube, but…

Story Time Theme: Blue
Following in last week’s footsteps, this week’s theme is the color BLUE! Although I had a much smaller crowd this week, we had a great time learning about the color blue. I still haven’t gotten a chance to use my nursery rhyme cube, but we were able to get through…

Storytime Theme: Purple – Part 2 (Yoga)
Today’s storytime used the same books from my toddler storytime on Monday and Tuesday, but were much more successful, even with 22 kids (ages 2 – 5) doing yoga! The storytime as a whole tended toward the crazy side, but the kids did a fairly great job with the yoga poses…

Fun Friday – Yoga
The kids were all a little wired for our Fun Friday program. We ended up with 21 kids for 45 minutes in grades 1 – 4. It’s only the second week of school, the weather was awesome, and it was Friday, so naturally the kids were bouncing off the walls. …
