This week I’m sharing the flannelboard I used for “Hat” storytime this week!
This is essentially “Little Mouse” just rhyming cat and hat instead. First, the kids and I talked about different kinds of hats and they helped naming them. Then, I told them I had hidden a cat underneath one hat and we had to guess which one. I chanted, “Little cat, little cat, are you under the _________ hat?”
As always, this kind of a flannelboard worked wonders and we played several times before the kids began to guess quicker where I had hidden the cat.
For the clip art, I used Microsoft Office pictures so I unfortunately do not have any files to link up. The cat is from my Old MacDonald set that I borrowed for this flannelboard.

Katie,
This is such a cute idea. Great for rhyming. I haven’t tried the Little Mouse game yet but now I am thinking that I’ll have to make Little Mouse and Little Cat sets. Lol!
Good idea to re-purpose your cat from your Old McDonald set. :o)
Yes, you simply MUST try Little Mouse — it is a FAVORITE flannelboard here!
I’m pinning this. I love a good hat storytime.
The whole storytime plan will go up on June 11th!
