Firefighters

This storytime was planned after a young boy who attends the storytime requested it.  We aim to please, so we give the crowd what they want.  :)

Books:



"Firefighter Tom to the Rescue!" by Charnan Simon


"Firebears: The Rescue Team" by Rhonda Gowler Green, illustrated by Dan Andreasen


"Rhinos who Rescue" by Julie Mammano

Other great books to use for this storytime:
"This is the Firefighter" by Godwin, Laura
"Firefighter Frank" by Wellington, Monica
"Fireman Small: Fire Down Below!" By Yee, Wong Herbert
"Fire Engine Man" by Zimmerman, Andrea

Art Project: The kids made their very own firefighter costumes of paper hats and badges.  Hats were made by cutting out a template of a firehat and then stapling it to a round strip of sturdy paper to go around the child's head.  Badges the children could put their names on were pinned or taped to their shirts .
