Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons (PSED link)

You will need to buy the book before starting these activities. Everyone watch the video first, which makes a good point about not crying over lost things and provides a starting point for rhythm-based activities. The 'rap' parts of the video demonstrate to you how to read those parts aloud.

Before you read the story again (once isn't enough!), every child needs to paint two paper plates to look like big buttons! Have four children to show one of their buttons and, as the buttons pop off and roll away, one child at a time puts their button down until there are no buttons left..
