Hello, friends! How are you today? Did you have a fun day playing outside or maybe a cozy day reading books? I hope you had a great time!
Today, we’re going to talk about a special book called “This Beautiful Day” by Richard Jackson. It’s full of fun and happiness!
On this beautiful day, we can dance and spin around. We can stomp our feet and clap our hands. It’s a day for skipping and singing, and making lots of happy sounds!
This day is perfect for playing games like hide and seek or doing cartwheels. We can slide and glide, and even high-five our friends. It’s so much fun!
After all the fun, we can take a little nap and have a yummy snack. We can make silly sounds like “doodly doo” and “doodly dee” together. It’s a wonderful day with perfect weather!
Every day can be beautiful when we’re with the people we love. Remember to show them lots of love and have fun together!
If you liked our story, let us know! We love hearing from you. Tell us about your day and all the fun things you did.
Take care, read lots of books, and we’ll see you next time. Bye-bye!
Dance and Movement Exploration: Let’s recreate the fun from “This Beautiful Day” by having a dance party! Play some music and encourage the children to dance, spin, stomp, and clap just like in the story. Ask them to think about how different movements make them feel. Can they create a new dance move that represents happiness or excitement? Share your new dance moves with friends or family and see if they can guess what feeling you’re expressing!
Outdoor Adventure Hunt: Go on a mini-adventure outside, just like the characters in the story. Create a simple scavenger hunt where children look for things that make their day beautiful, such as a colorful leaf, a smooth rock, or a friendly bug. Encourage them to describe why each item is special and how it adds to the beauty of their day. Afterward, share your findings with the group and discuss how nature can make us feel happy and connected.
Creative Storytelling with Sounds: Using the silly sounds from the story, like “doodly doo” and “doodly dee,” have the children create their own short story or scene. They can use these sounds to express different actions or emotions. Encourage them to perform their story for the class or family members, using their voices and movements to bring it to life. Ask them how using sounds and actions can make storytelling more fun and engaging.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:

[Music] Welcome back to the Story Time Family! How was your day today? Did you have a busy day or a relaxing day? Maybe a fun day out at the park, or perhaps a day spent reading lots of books? I hope you’ve been good! Today we have this beautiful day. If you’d like to purchase a copy and show some love for the author, the links are in the description below.
Let’s get started on this beautiful day, “This Beautiful Day” by Richard Jackson and illustrated by Susie Lee.
This beautiful day, dancing and spinning and swinging around, has all of us stamping and stomping our feet on the ground. This beautiful day has all of us skipping and singing and calling aloud, or whistling and whooping enough for a crowd.
This beautiful day is so great for parading, for cartwheeling fun, or hiding and seeking, or gliding and sliding in this marigold. High-fiving and yes, we’re alive! Teetering, tottering, everyone clapping and even toe-tapping, napping at last, then snacking. Doodly slurp, doodly burp, doodly doo and doodly dee, all together, oh yes, in this perfect weather on this beautiful day.
Oh, can you say this beautiful day? I hope you’re having a beautiful day indeed! So long as you’re with the people you love, every day can be beautiful, am I right? We are so lucky to be able to be with the people we love. Remember to show them lots of love!
