"Surprise Me!" Storytime Theme

We launched a new theme for Storytime recently. "Surprise Me!" turned out to be a big success!  Instead of picking one theme, for example Gardening, we selected 10-12 fun/popular stories, song and fingerplays and then had the children who came to storytime draw out of a bag to see what story, song or finger play we would read, sing or say next.  During the Fun for 4s and 5s session we received several nice comments.  One patron said her grandson loved being part of Storytime.  Another commented on how well the children participated.  And, one lady asked if we planned on doing the theme again, because her daughter really enjoyed it. All in attendance joined in and had fun!
