October 31, 2013, 10:00 a.m., Attendance - 14 lively preschoolers
Books: What's in the Witch's Kitchen? by Nick Sharret
The Spooky Box by Mark Gonyer
Silly Skeletons by Janet Lawler
Board Stories: "Snacks for Ghosts"
"The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything"
Rhyme: "Flap, Flap, Flap Go the Wings of the Bat..." by Katie Ahearn Fitzgerald
Rhyme with Prop: "Five Little Ghosts"
Magic Envelope: In went parts, out came a Jack O'Lantern
Game: Find the Bat Under the Witch's Hat
Craft: Paper plate Jack O'Lantern (Craft from Oriental Trading)
Notes: This group was ready to celebrate! Most came in costume. We played a trick on them for I switched with the librarian who usually does the preschool storytime. We started with a cryer (evidently this was not unusual for him) which caused me to change my plan a bit. I had wanted to start with a book but instead started with "Snacks for Ghosts" which caught every one's attention. From then on we had a great time and could have gone well beyond our thirty minutes.

Looks like such a fun story time. I'm thrilled that you used my Flap Flap Flap rhyme!
