Our community has a fabulous program run by the Families First Society called Parent n Child Mother Goose or Rhymes n Story Time. It has been part of our little family's activities since Amelia's birth. It is a beautiful program where parents gather weekly to learn songs, lullabies and stories that they can then sing at home with their little ones. It is lovely!!! The facilitators are fabulous, seriously so fabulous, they always make you feel like you are doing a good job as a parent (who doesn't need that). Participating in the programs has been something I have really enjoyed and hope that my ladies will have a love for the songs/stories that have come into our home because of our attendance. Some of the songs we have learned have become family staples; You are Wonderful, Shoe Fly, Ho Ho Watuna, The Moon is Round, Snakes, On My Foot...just to name a few!!!
A while ago the Bird girls and us Polischuk ladies were asked to share a story that we had learned at the Annual General Meeting. So the other night we got everyone dressed up spiffy and headed out after dinner, yup it was an early evening meeting. We were a bit worried but it went pretty well. We waited patiently for our turn as we were near the beginning of the program and all went up together. It was mostly Alyson and I doing the actions, even though Amelia totally knew it and Stella wanted to hold the microphone for us, so that was really cute. The program and organization is truly an asset to our community, just a beautiful thing to be a part of.
We tried to get a group shot of everyone but yeah obviously when people are usually asleep at this time of night we weren't going to get top notch posing girls. It actually got a little rough for Amelia and Stella and I....Alyson reminded me to stay cool as I buckled two spazzers into the car. Ugh but it really was a great night up to that point.
KEY TO THE KINGDOM
This is the key to the kingdom. (hold up thumb)
This is the kingdom.
In the kingdom there is a town.
In the town there is a hill.
On the hill there is a road.
On the road there is a house.
In the house there is a room.
In the room there is a bed.
On the bed there is a basket.
On the basket there is a blanket.
Under the blanket there is a BABY. (hold up thumb)
Baby under the blanket.
Blanket on the basket.
Basket on the bed.
Bed in the room.
Room in the house.
House on the road.
Road on the hill.
Hill in the town.
Town in the Kingdom,
And this is the KEY TO THE KINGDOM. (hold up thumb)
