Claire and I started going to Storybox at Bemis library when she was 10 months old, exactly two years ago. I had just met Diane and Phoebe (at the grocery story, that is a story for another post...) and invited them to join us. Since then, we faithfully attended Storybox almost weekly. It has been a wonderful outing for us, a fun way to get to know Diane and Phoebe, and a great way for Claire to really blossom socially.
Claire's favorite Storytime songs: Itsy Bitsy Spider, Ram Sam Sam, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
I remember when the girls were little, and the "big kids" would go "sit up front" to look at the story. I thought those 2 year old girls were soooo big and felt like Claire would never catch up. Now, she and Phoebe have been the oldest at Storybox for several months. Claire became quite the "teachers' pet," answering questions loudly, singing along with the motions, and behaving very well (mostly!)
Her favorite part : Music Day!
Claire and Phoebe give hugs and kisses on the lips almost everytime they say Goodbye.
The girls ' favorite "teacher," Miss Joan. Lately Claire has been playing pretend, acting out Storybox with the puppet. "You be Claire, Catherine is Phoebe, and I am Miss Joan! Do you want a tickle?"
