Description
Your preschoolers will love circle time with these early childhood nursery rhymes and songs designed to keep them engaged with interactive visual supports for Hickory Dickory Dock, Jack & Jill, Baa Baa Black Sheep and If You’re Happy & You Know It. This set includes everything you need for early learners to practice following directions and taking turns with the 3 nursery rhymes and the expanded song.
The giant clock from Hickory Dickory Dock has hands that move. Plus, expanding on the traditional nursery rhyme, there are 12 original characters who climb the clock and retreat into an interactive book.
To make your life easier, the flip books for Jack & Jill and Baa Baa Black Sheep each come with PowerPoint versions to be projected on a white board to reduce material prep.
