Hello, What's Your Weather?
- 10 spreads
- About 2 min of song
- English · Español
Six flat stones wait under the willow, and Wren has a hello for every friend. Milo comes foggy, Ada comes sunny, Sami comes drizzly, Lupe comes windy... and here comes Jonah, stomping, with a storm. What's your weather today? Every weather gets a hello that fits. A read-aloud story with a sung hello and feelings check-in, and a bar of rest for every child's answer. Look for the frog with its own tiny rain cloud on every page.
Level 1 · First Songs
Listen, move, and join in with a sound.
The child: Listens, moves, claps or taps, and joins in with a sound, a word or a sign when the song stops for them.
The grown-up: Sings most of it. Pauses before the word that comes back so the child can fill it in, any way they can.
