Other book suggestions:
Cloudette by Tom Lichtenheld
If you're a Cloud and You Know it (adapted by me from "If You're Happy and You Know It")
If you're a cloud and you know it float around (raise arms to side and sway)
If you're a cloud and you know it then you'll really want to show it,
If you're a cloud and you know it float around.
If you're a cloud and you know it make it rain, (move fingers down to ground like rain)
If you're a cloud and you know it then you'll really want to show it,
If you're a cloud and you know it make it rain.
If you're a cloud and you know it make it thunder, (stomp feet)
If you're a cloud and you know it then you'll really want to show it,
If you're a cloud and you know it make it thunder.
Stomping in the Rain (from Librarian vs. Storytime)
We're stomping in the rain, (stomp feet)
We're stomping in the rain,
We can't go yet,
We must get wet!
We're stomping in the rain!
Other verses can include clapping, hopping, twirling, dancing, etc.
It Ain't Gonna Rain No More (from Jbrary)
It ain't gonna rain no more, no more,
It ain't gonna rain no more,
Oh no, it's up to my toe!
It ain't gonna rain no more!
It ain't gonna rain no more, no more,
It ain't gonna rain no more,
Oh gee, it's up to my knee!
It ain't gonna rain no more!
It ain't gonna rain no more, no more,
It ain't gonna rain no more,
Oh my, it's up to my thigh!
It ain't gonna rain no more!
It ain't gonna rain, no more, no more,
It ain't gonna rain no more,
Oh fiddle, it' s up to my middle!
It ain't gonna rain no more!
It ain't gonna rain, no more, no more,
It ain't gonna rain no more,
Oh heck, it's up to my neck,
It ain't gonna rain no more!
It ain't gonna rain no more, no more,
It ain't gonna rain no more,
Oh dread, it's up to my head,
I guess I'll just swim home!
The Rain is Falling Down (to the tune of "The Farmer in the Dell", from Storytime Katie)
The rain is falling down, (flutter fingers down) SPLASH! (clap once)
The rain is falling down, (flutter fingers down) SPLASH! (clap once)
Pitter patter pitter patter, (tap legs)
The rain is falling down (flutter fingers) SPLASH! (clap once)

Literacy tip of the week: When reading with your child it is great to run your fingers under the words as you read them. This brings attention to the words and the way they work. For instance, it shows your child that we read from left to right.
