Owl Storytime

on October 4, 2012

Fall makes me think of owls. Lots of great owl sto­ries, flan­nels and fin­ger­plays to choose from. It’s obvi­ous I like them from the inter­nal links I’ve added below :) Feel free to add your own owl sto­ry­time ideas!

Owl Babies by Mar­tin Waddell

This Lit­tle Owl fin­ger­play
This lit­tle owl slept all day (Hold up fore­fin­ger, lay head on hands)
This lit­tle owl flew away (Hold up mid­dle fin­ger, make fly­ing motions with hands)
This lit­tle owl made not a sound (Hold up ring fin­ger, put fin­ger to lips)
This lit­tle owl is nice and round (Hold up pinky, hold arms out to make a big stom­ach)
This lit­tle owl could only say, “Whooo, whooo, whooo, have a nice day!” (hold up thumb and wave other hand)

I’m Not Cute — Jonathan Allen

Five Hoot Owls count­ing flan­nel
Five hoot owls sit­ting in a tree
One flew away! How many do you see?
One, two, three, four.

Four hoot owls… etc.
