Tip
When you enjoy a book, let your children know that you like it and why. Sharing your enjoyment gives them a positive attitude toward books. This positive attitude will influence them when they get to school and learn to read. Let your child choose books and tell you why he/she likes them. -Lambert

Let’s take a look at this book
Here is the cover
We open it wide
Here are the pages hidden inside
There are words and pictures
We look and we look
And when we are finished
We close up the book

Bean Bag Rock
Chorus
Shake, shake, shake your bean bag
Shake, shake, shake your bean bag
Everybody come on, shake your bean bag
Shake your bean bag, don′t let it drop
Let’s all do the bean bag rock
Hold the bean bag on your head
Hold the bean bag on your knees
Hold the bean bag on your tummy and wiggle around if you please (If you please)
Hold the bean bag way down low

Now shake and wriggle ’cause you’re doing the bean bag rock

Hold the bean bag on your toes
Hold the bean bag on your ear and let me see you wiggle your nose

Hold it high in the air and don’t you let go
Now shake and wriggle ′cause you’re doing the bean bag rock

(Shake, shake) come on, come on, come on, shake your bean bag
Shake, shake
Shake your bean bag
Stop
It′s called the bean bag rock
