American Indian Heritage Month

Don't forget to celebrate American Indian Heritage Month. If you present preschool or toddler programs you can alway incorporate bits and pieces of this culture into your storytime. Today during my Spanish storytime I decided to introduce the storytime using colors. I announced that this month is AIHM and since colors are significant in the dress wear of American Indians, we read books about colors. For the craft, we made an indian head dress with feathers. We also sung and danced to the song "Ten little indians" in Spanish. If you have instruments for your audience, this would be a great time to use them with your songs.
