Mouse Paint | Ellen Stoll Walsh

This week at #storytime we‘re talking about mice! Mouse Paint is a perennial favorite that brings up colors (and color mixing with the old kids), while Big Bear, Small Mouse talks about opposites. There‘s a Bear on My Chair has a fantastic rhyme scheme as well. #kidlit #raisingreaders #litsyloveslibraries

Stacy_31 Mouse Paint was always a favorite with my own kids and in my classroom. 💜💜 6y

Finger painting with 24 kindergarteners is not for the faint of heart. #teachersoflitsy

BookNAround My oldest refused to fingerpaint and when the teacher mentioned it and I thought about it, I hated it when I was small too. Guess I passed along some sensory issues! 6y

JoScho @Kaye oh they love it! 6y

JoScho @AmyG it is such a good one for teaching colors and color mixing. 6y

JoScho @BookNAround i occasionally get kids that don‘t like it. 6y

GripLitGrl Oh what fun!!💛💛 6y

Suet624 @BookNAround I was the same way. 6y

AJones I ❤️ this idea! Literature with a hands-on activity. I bet the kiddos loved it too. 6y

JoScho @AJones thank you! I try to incorporate books as much as possible in my lessons 😊 6y

JoScho @kstadt929 yay another art teacher! I did 4K-2nd grade for 9 years and now I am at a k-5 school. I try to use the hashtag #kidart if you want to see some of our other projects. I have posted a couple I think. 6y

kstadt929 Awesome! I will have to check it out! I work with babies - age 5 during the school year and then summer with the school age program 5-12 😍 (edited) 6y

JoScho @kstadt929 very cool! Do you get any kind of summer break? 6y

kstadt929 No, but I only work 4 days a week and I have Fridays off. I love it! 6y

JoScho @kstadt929 yeah I think I could handle that 😊 6y

Taking a break from prepping an upcoming two hour workshop: "Early Literacy Storytimes & Easy Outreach." Here's a few of my favorite storytime reads, but it looks like I need to pull more nonfiction!

Share a photo of your favorite #BookishSculpture today! This one is at the Fairport Community Library in Fairport NY along the Erie Canal. They are the mice from Mouse Paint by Ellen Stoll Walsh, who lives in Fairport. Mischievous staff and residents dress the mice up for various holidays. Here they are celebrating Fourth of July.
