Mrs Kelly is in unchartered waters with this one, but I have set up a YouTube channel to host videos of storytime!  We will also provide links to other sites you might enjoy.  There are also currently lots of authors sharing their favourite books online that you might enjoy - if you search #operationstorytime on youtube, facebook or instagram, there are lots of videos your child might enjoy watching with you.

I've set the youtube videos as unlisted so you can't access them through the channel, I will provide the links here instead as they are recorded.

Here is the first one - it's the lovely "There are No Cats in This Book" by Viviane Schwarz..

Happy April! A new story for a new month!  This time, the lovely "Ernest" by Catherine Rayner.  Enjoy!

A rather rambling affair this week.  But it's the lovely "Augustus and His Smile" by Catherine Rayner (again)!

To tie in with our jungle animals... it's old Gerald in "Giraffes Can't Dance" by Giles Andreae

In this video I mention listening to some of the different types of music.  I've linked some examples here... https://www.parkhouse.derbyshire.sch.uk/giraffes-cant-dance/ I will add some further bits to this page in the coming days.

The sun is shining... Mrs Kelly got all excited and took herself into the garden to read you Winnie the Witch, as promised!
