B is for Bubblegum

This is a storytime I took to Kindercare (ages 3-7).

Flannel Board:

5 little gumballs sitting in a store
_________ (name of a child) took the __________ (color) one, then there were 4.
4 little gumballs smiling with glee
3 little gumballs with nothing to do
2 little gumballs waiting for some fun
1 little gumball this rhyme is almost done
___________ took the last one, now there are none!

Book:  Pop! The Invention of Bubble Gum (McCarthy)

Stand-up song (chant):
Sticky, icky bubble gum, bubble gum
Sticky, icky bubble gum, bubble gum
makes my hands stick to my knees.
You pull 'em
And pull 'em
and pull 'em away!
Repeat, stick your hands to different parts of your body and "pull 'em away".

Book:  Bubble gum, bubble gum (Wheeler)
Book:  Trouble Gum (Cordell)
The pictures are kind of small for a large group...but the story is very fun!
