Shake it up baby now!
In case you didn't know/forgot, I am a librarian by day. This month, I'm in charge of our preschool storytimes. Today, I decided to end storytime with some parachute play while listening to The Beatles sing 'Twist and Shout'. At the end, I had the parents lift up the 'chute so the kids could go under and that also meant I could grab the 'chute and wrap it back up!
But something wonderful and unexpected happened today! While I was gathering my 'chute up in my arms, my iPod just kept playing and suddenly I heard Paul counting down and 'I Saw Her Standing There' playing.
EVERY KID STARTED DANCING!

It was fantastic. The magic of music, the power of The Beatles - I didn't have the heart to stop the song so I just started dancing with all of them too.
It was so much fun. But now I am EXHAUSTED!
