After a lot of thought, I’ve organized this section to hopefully make things a bit clearer. And now there’s a drop-down menu!
For every session (either six-week or eight-week), I plan some songs, rhymes, and fingerplays for the whole session. Most of the time, I *don’t* use them because I also have three to four extension activities planned per theme. But I like having them. I’ve filed them all under “Session Stretchers.”
I created a “Master List” of all the extension activities that I’ve used. That’s already been a great help for me!
And lastly, I’ve created separate sections for “Opening/Closing Songs” and for “Getting the Wiggles Out.”
Hey!
I was so excited to see your link for songs to use for ‘getting the wiggles out’ but it links to a 404 error page – do you have this elsewhere? Thanks so much for all the resources on your site – I’m still pretty new to storytime, so this page is a HUGE help to me!!

I have no idea what happened to the page, but it’s up now!
