"Nesting Cats" Rhyme

on
This week's pet-themed storytime was a bonanza of awesome prop/puppet type stories. Here's one that I did with my 2's and 3's, who were completely fascinated by these awesome nesting cats. All credit for this one goes to my fabulous co-worker, Miss E.

"Nesting Cats"
Kitty, kitty
I hear a sound
Who is it? 
Meow! 

Kitty, kitty 
I hear a sound
Who is it? 
Meow! 

Kitty, kitty
I hear a sound
Who is it? 
Meow! 

Kitty, kitty,
I hear a sound
Who is it? 
SQUEAK! a Mouse


The nesting cats set is $10.99 as of this writing at Bits and Pieces. They have other animals too, so check them out! If you sign up for their newsletter, you will get a coupon for 10% off your first order. Note: I haven't ordered anything from this company before so I have no idea how good their service is.

This set could also be used to pair with Waiting by Kevin Henkes, as my friend Anna did with a flannel set.

P.S. Thanks to the State Library of Iowa for recommending my blog in the August edition of its youth services newsletter. That's so cool! Also thanks to Liz Anderson for spotting it and letting me know!

    GREAT idea! We have nesting sets at home...none are cats but I am thinking about how to change the rhyme to suit! Thanks!

    I like the words especially since you can change them and bring out any animal (using misc flannels or puppets).
