I'm a Little Teapot
I'm a little teapot, (point at self)
Short and stout! (hands on your hips, bend your knees and back up)
Here is my handle, (hold out one arm, then bend out your elbow and place your hand on your hip)
Here is my spout. (bend other arm out like a spout)
When I get all steamed up hear me shout! ( tilt head back and shout "ahh!")
Just tip me over and pour me out! (lean over on your spout side)
Frosty the Snowman

Our 4s and 5s groups had a special visitor for story time this week! His name is Copper!
Copper visited the Library for some stories and snacks! The kids gave him some treats and lots of scratches and cuddles. He was very excited to meet everyone, and sit on his Mommy's feet while everyone petted him!
What do you think, should we bring Copper back another day?
For snack, we had some delicious mixed fruits!
That's it for 2015! We'll see you all back again in the new year!
