So, I've pulled every Anansi book possible and I'm whittling down the possibilities of what story to use for a puppet show for preschool and up. I really want to cater to the younger crowd and plan a show that is age appropriate for them, so I came across Mary Murphy's book A Caterpillar's Wish. It's very "toddler friendly," so I'm working on the script for that part. That way, if branches in our system want to use the puppet show box as part of a two's storytime or program, it's there. :)
I'm really having a much more difficult time (than I thought) finding bug-themed songs on CDs. I have plenty of songs and rhymes to sing along to, but I'm looking for an action song on a CD to really get the kids up and moving.
All in all, this has been a fun project so far. Time to go search the catalog for more CDs and other ideas that may light a spark...
