BOOKS FOR WEEK OF OCTOBER 26TH
Are you ready for Halloween? Have you and your child talked about what to expect at this time of year?

Practice dressing up together and show how pretending to be someone else can be fun!
Check out some of our great books that explore the scary holiday HERE!

Poem: Five Little Ghosts
Five little ghosts dressed all in white,
We’re scaring each other on Halloween night.
"Boo" said the first one, "I'll catch you."
"Boo" said the second, "I don't care if you do."
The third ghost said, "You can't run away from me."
And the fourth one said, "I'll scare everyone I see"
Then the last one said, "It's time to disappear."
"See you at Halloween time next year!”
