Read and Make: Numbers

I've started a new series of family story times this month, and this week's books and craft are too cute not to share...























Believe it or not, this is the first number themed story time I've ever done!  We do lots of counting on a regular basis, but this group of picture books was begging for its own story time:

Read:
Count the Monkeys by Mac Barnett
Let's Count Goats by Mem Fox
Abigail by Catherine Rayner
Dog Loves Counting by Louise Yates

Sing:
Two for Tea by Jim Gill - I got to see him speak at a conference last fall and ever since then I can't stop using his music - it's just awesome for story time.

Make:
Crocodile number line from Mr. Printables - this site has the cutest stuff (for free!) that's also really well designed - love! I had each section of the number line already cut for families so all they had to do was add any coloring or dots they wanted before folding and gluing (or taping) the number line together.
