B is for Bedtime

An outreach storytime
To introduce the Summer Reading Program--Dream Big--Read!

Book:  Go To Bed, Monster  (Natasha Wing)


Song:  Before I go to bed
(tune:  The Wheels on the Bus)

Before I go to bed I take a bath
Splash, splash, splash
Splash, splash, splash
Before I go to bed I take a bath
Splash, splash, splash!

Additional verses:
I brush my teeth--brush, brush, brush
I get a drink--gulp, gulp, gulp
I read a book--once upon a time
I give a kiss--(make kissing sounds)
I whisper good night--nighty-night, nighty-night

Now I'm in bed I go to sleep
(snore, snore, snore)
(snore, snore, snore)
Now I'm in bed I go to sleep
(snore, snore, snore)

Wake up little bunny
Wake up little bunny
Hop, hop, hop!
Hop, hop, hop!
