It is storytime, Come read your book. There is so much to see and learn. Come and meet new friends, The adventure never ends, There is always something new to explore.
SUNG SONG 2 (to the tune of “Pat-a-cake”)
It’s time for Zoe to start her day! She gets dressed as fast as she can. She eats her breakfast and plays with her toys, Then she likes to play at the park with her friends. When the day ends, it’s time for a bath, Then Zoe climbs into bed and closes her eyes.

Listen to the children play, In the symphony today. Peaceful sounds now fill the air. Grace and beauty everywhere. Listen to the children play, In the symphony today!
SUNG SONG 4 (to the tune of “Old MacDonald”)
There are four kids in the band, E-I-E-I-O! They are playing a country tune, E-I-E-I-O! With a quack, quack, here, And a woof, woof, there. Here a quack, there a woof, everywhere a quack, woof! There are four kids in the band, playing happily!
