"A Rhyme in Time: Poetry and Pose"

Hickory-Dickory-Doc... Poetry is on our clock! At least for this month it is! Celebrate some of the greatest children’s poets throughout time. We’ll be inspired by popular poems and prose to play My Shadow tag and measure our shadows, as well as cook up some tasty Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater bread and Chicken Soup with Rice! Tackle the task of sewing The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat and challenge ourselves to The Cat in the Hat balancing act! Ever wonder the origin of the limerick? Well, there was a man from Ireland, who wrote the very first limerick! Although mine doesn’t rhyme, we’ll have a good time, and I am sure that Mr. Lear won’t mind! So this month, go Where the Sidewalk Ends. You’ll find a Light in the Attic and a poetic party of fun!
