Introduction with signs and symbols to some of the instruments in Little Lantern Storytime



Music-Making & Sensory Prop Ideas:

In this Storytime we visit three habitats of different colour, which would be lovely to enhance with sensory props: ribbons, cloths, parachutes, etc....  once we begin the Lantern Walk, there's about 2 mins on each (a bit of narrative and a short song) so time to explore fairly freely. We also meet three animals - perhaps you have your own props or puppets to play along with...
The order is:
Golden / Yellow Trees - Bird
Green Meadow - Fox
Blue Stream - Duck

If anyone feels to join in with music-making, all the songs are very open to playing along on any percussion you wish. Some sparkling bells or rustling shakers would compliment the story beautifully. The songs are really inviting to join in with your own shakers or preferred instruments -  though of course, join in whenever and however you wish :)

Full lyrics are below, or as a two-page printable songsheet at   / starintheapplestories

Little Lantern Storytime Songs lyrics:


I Go With My Little Lantern

I go with my little Lantern
My lantern is going with me
In Heaven the stars are shining
On Earth shines my lantern for me
The Sun has set - The people sing:
Lantern Shine - la bim-a-la bim-a-la bim!


The Path is Full of Darkness

The Path is full of darkness
Show me the way - Show me the way
Sun light, Moon light, Star light, Fire light
Show me the way - Show me the way

May the heart be light - May the soul shine bright
Show me the way - Show me the way
Sun light, Moon light, Star light, Fire light
Show me the way - Show me the way


This Little Light of Mine

This little light of mine - I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine - I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine - I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!


Let The Love That You Are Shine Through

Wherever you go - Whatever you do
Just let the Love that you are keep shining through
Wherever you go - Whatever you do
Just let the Love that you are shine through!
