What’s the only thing better than a visit with preschoolers?
TWO visits with preschoolers!
Up first, was a super fun group of three-year-old’s!
After introducing myself, Fire Truck and I wasted no time digging into storytime.
These little ones were a fantastic audience.
With storytime wrapped up, it was time to bring out my special guest, Fire Truck Plushie! And boy did he set off the alarms of oohing and aahing preschoolers . . .
After all of the kids had a chance to touch the plushie,
. . .we dove right into singing I’M A LITTLE FIRE TRUCK.
Nice job kids! You all have such wonderful voices!
Then, each and every three-year-old got a goodie bag of their own to take home with them.
And it was time for Fire Truck and I to move on to round two . . .
The four-year-old’s!
As we entered the room, we were greeted with smiles from the kids already prepared and sitting crisscross applesauce on the storytime carpet waiting for us. Such a wonderful sight for an author to see!
These kids were sharp, too. They immediately saw my covered tote (Hint: Fire Truck Plushie is inside) and asked what was inside.
After a quick hint of a surprise coming soon, storytime began. And just like the three-year-old’s, these kids were fantastic! They had fun yawning with Fire Truck, finding the little doggie on the pages, and discovering that Fire Trucks love bedtime books as much as they do.
Then, it was time for the Plushie reveal! WOW! Were these kids fast to clamor around me for an up close look. Fire Truck Plushie had a blast!
With storytime and our song done for the day, it was time to hand out more goodie bags,
and snap a group photo! (So happy we got this one. I wish I had gotten one with the three-year-old group. Next time for sure.)
Looks like one kiddo is practicing for Halloween scary faces. Love it!
And awww! Fire Truck Dreams put little Sophia right on off to sleep in her great grandma’s arms. 😊
Once home, Sophia decided naptime wasn’t over and that Fire Truck Plushie made the best pillow.
Nighty night Sophia and Fire Truck Plushie. Sweet dreams.
Thank you, Mount Pilot Child Enrichment Center, for inviting us for a fun visit. We had a wonderful time!
And a special thank you to my mom, Charlotte and my granddaughter, Sophia for enjoying this fun day with me.
