Hello and Happy 2021! It is finally a new year – a brand new slate for new possibilities! I hope you all had a fun New Year’s Eve and got to do something special to celebrate!

Books:

Today we talked all about penguins! I love penguins – I think they are so cute and I love watching them waddle and glide through the water. We read the books: Harriet Gets Carried Away by Jessie Sima and Five Flying Penguins by Barbara Barbieri McGrath. Two super cute books about penguins.

Songs:

I’m a Little Penguin

(Tune: I’m a Little Teapot)

I’m a little penguin

Black and white.

Short and wobbly

An adorable sight.

I can’t fly at all

But I love to swim.

So I’ll waddle to the water

And dive right in!

Activities:

Today we talked about the letter “T”. Here are some fun activity ideas that start with the letter T:
