Top Notch Fingerplays

I use many of the fingerplays in this book. One of my favorites is called Sometimes I get a boo boo. I work with two and three year olds and they loved this fingerplay. One of my two year olds went home and quoted this play after I had taught it to them. The next day his mother told me about it so I decided to make a copy of the fingerplay for each of my children. I wrote it down and placed a band aid with each play then I covered it with contac paper. They loved taking this home. Two more that I have taught are the following: A cook or a chef wears a tall white hat. I collected each of the hats mentioned in the fingerplay and showed them to them as I taught it. This helped them memorize the play. The other one is My mommy drives her car to work. I collected each of the vehicles mentioned in the play and showed them to the children as I taught it to them. One more play I enjoyed was Pickles, pickles in a jar. I took some pickles and taught the fingerplay before I let each child taste a pickle. Each of my children did like pickles and the fingerplay. I think Jane Kitson's plays are awesome! Thank you.
