Wow. It’s been…like, 6 months since I last blogged, and I apologize for that. I’m a little over 1 year into a new job with more responsibility, more supervising, and fewer storytimes, and that has meant a lot of learning and doing and figuring out. I’m definitely feeling settled now and enjoying my work as an early literacy department head, but still don’t find as many opportunities to blog. I do miss it. I will try harder (famous last words, I know).
Meanwhile, I wanted to share with you something I learned about this week. A former co-worker from my old library put me on to this Boulder, CO-based band: Basho & Friends. Talk about FUN music! It’ll get you moving and dancing and maybe even learning some new words – in Spanish, French, or Chinese! I do some Spanish-language and bilingual storytimes and I think some of these songs would be PERFECT movement activities. I especially like this one and intend to use it soon!:
¡Baila y disfruta!

Love this, Mary! I am totally going to use this and others from Basho & Friends in storytimes!
