It's felt like being in one of those Webcomic Name "oh no" comics this past decade or so, I used to see "why don't books come with AO3-style tags??" all the time- now that's how books are marketed, to the detriment of everything that doesn't fit in the breezy/spicy/tropey romance mold... oh no π«€

I, uhhhh, meant to do Rain on the Grass as a scarf rhyme but somehow spontaneously forgot the words and invented a new SONG to the tune of Farmer in the Dell that actually worked perfectly so a+ for thinking on my feet?

I'm still getting used to Wednesday as my new storytime day, and I had a slightly different group of kids today. But storytime itself was fun--garden & soil themed, with a STEM focus. We talked about what makes good soil, I read Worm Makes a Sandwich, and we did garden sensory bins & playdough.
