Subject: off-work projects
Most program planning and preparation is done at home, whether there are
rules about it or not. However, your library should probably allow a set
amount of planning time during the work week--a SCHEDULED time. If the
storyteller still wants to make feltboards, etc. at home, it would be very
difficult to prevent; but there should be a clear understanding that anything
made at home is the property of the person who made it (as long as the
library doesn't purchase materials). The library could then purchase the
felt boards and puppets from the staff member after establishing fair prices
for the items, if it were determined that the items would be useful for
other staff members and future staff. Just a thought. . .

Subject: VOYA reviews
As a VOYA reviewer for over a decade, I know that VOYA does not tell reviewers
what to write. I know from experience that they even print reviews that they
disagree with. I think that the reason there are so many dysfunctional
families in YA books reviewed, is because that is the kind of books being
published for YAs. VOYA cannot review books that are not being published.
If no one is writing books with more "normal" families and situations,
how
can VOYA review them?
Just my 2 cents worth.

Subject: Re: Hawaiian party/Hula Hoops
I just purchased some hula hoops from Holcomb's Educational Resource. They are
called "Cramer Safe-T-Play Plastic Hoops". They come 24" or
30", three to a
set, 12.89-15.45 a set respectively. (Page 371 in the 1999-2000 catalog) The
phone number for Holcomb's is 1-800-362-9907.
Have fun!

Subject: Re: toddler opening and closing songs
I always open my Toddler storytimes with "The Eencey Weencey Spider"
from
Sharon, Lois and Bram's Mainly Mother Goose. It's a great version that starts
with the traditional one, and then follows with a BIG FAT SPIDER that lives next
door and ends with a teensey weensey spider that lives next door to that one.
Next, we sing...
(tune: Skip to My Lou)
Hello, how are you?
Hello, how are you?
Hello, how are you?
How are you today?
It's good to see ______, here.
It's good to see ______, here.
It's good to see ______, here.
How are you today?
(We continue until every child has been formally greeted.)
My closing song is "Skinnamarink", also Sharon, Lois, and Bram,
followed by ...
Our hands can say thank you with a clap, clap, clap.
Our feet can say thank you with a tap, tap, tap.
Clap, clap, clap, tap, tap, tap.
We roll our hands around and we say, "Good-bye!"
Toddlers are terrific!

What about pineapple chunks? Or maybe there is an adaptable recipe on
a box of pineapple upside-down cake. One book that comes to mind is
Hawaii is a Rainbow by Feeney. It is not really a story, but has nice
color photos of Hawaii, children, flora and fauna, etc. Have fun!

Dear YACCERS,
To the person interested in current sources of info on infant and
toddler brain development: I highly recommend the websites on the page
developmed by Gale Sherman, early childhood specialist and librarian.
She gave an excellent talk to our group in Houston on the subject. The
page she developed has excellent books, articles and internet links
including the iamyourchild.org site which is a great one. The address
is

A to Zoo and Bookfinder don't cover that touchy area between bribery and

don't have any good leads.
Please respond to me directly.

Subject: stumper - black tulips
Help! A patron remembers reading a book about a child trying to play a
trick on the grandmother by turning the tulips black (painting them maybe),
but before she can pull it off the grandmother does it first.
Ring any bells? We don't own the book and we showed her the list of picture
books on flowers from A to Zoo but nothing looked familiar (doesn't mean it
wasn't there ;-) ) Please respond directly to me.
Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,
Someone asked me for a recommendation for a book that would explain the
loss of a friend to a seven year old (friend died of cancer). He wanted
one that concentrated on the friendship more than the death. Any
recommendations? Please respond directly to me.
