Story Time at the Northeast Branch Library


Every Thursday, there is a Story Time at the Northeast Branch Library (on Thomasville Road, across from Walmart).  This week, several MOPS moms and kids attended. Story Time usually starts off with Raffi’s “Shake Your Sillies Out”, which all the kids love to dance to, then Miss Caroline (the Story Time leader) takes out “Book Worm” and the kids all try to get a book from Book Worm by yelling “Book!”  Then she reads a couple of books, interspersed with some dancing or finger activities such as “Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, Turn Around”,  “Open, Shut Them”, and “If You’re Happy and You Know it”. One of the last things Miss Caroline does is a puppet show.  These are always a huge hit with the audience.  This week, the theme of Story Time was "Bugs" so Miss Caroline read a few books about bugs, and then did a really cute puppet show with all kinds of bug puppets, including ladybugs, butterflies, spiders, and even a roach!  There was a lot of screaming and squealing from both moms and kids!
