 Hi everyone, my name is Daneah and I'm from the Long Beach Public Library. Welcome to today's special toddler time. Well, I'll be doing our story time in English and Tagalog. This is an honor of Asian Pacific Islander American Heritage Month. So let's get started. For today, our first word is good morning. Can we say good morning in English? Good morning. And now we're going to say it in Tagalog. We say it Magandang Umaga. Again, let's do it again. Magandang Umaga. That says good morning. So when you wake up and you want to say good morning to somebody in Tagalog, we go Magandang Umaga. Good morning. Now can we all put out our arms and wave our hands? And this is a sign we say hello. So we can always sing our, this is a way we wave hello, and I'll show you how to say hello in Tagalog afterwards. So let's start waving and we're going to do this is a way we wave hello, wave hello, wave hello. This is a way we wave hello, hello, hello, hello. Hello, everyone. And now when you want to say hello in Tagalog, you say Kumusta. Again, let's do it again. Say hello. Kumusta. Say it in Tagalog. Kumusta. Very good. That says hello. Okay. So now we'll be doing a song with head, shoulders, and toes. But we're going to do it in Tagalog. And in Tagalog, they do it a little bit different. We go backwards. So which is really fun. So usually when we do head, shoulders, knees, and toes, we go head, shoulders, knees, and toes. Instead, we're going to go toes, knees, shoulders, and head. Okay, so let's point out our body parts in English. We got our toes, our knees, our shoulders, our head. And now we're going to do this in Tagalog. So we're going to go Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Okay, let's do it again. Our toes, we say Paa. Our knees, we go Toad. Our shoulders is Balikat. And our head is Ulo. Okay, so now we're going to sing it in English, and then we'll sing it in Tagalog. Okay. So it goes, my toes, my knees, my shoulders, my head, my toes, my knees, my shoulders, my head, my toes, my knees, my shoulders, my head, toes, knees, shoulders, and head. Okay, so now we're going to do this in Tagalog. Okay, so we're going to sing it twice. Okay. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Toes, knees, shoulders, and head. Okay, you ready again? Okay, this is really fun, huh? Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Toes, knees, shoulders, and head. Okay, let's sing it in English and in Tagalog. One more time. My toes, my knees, my shoulders, my head, my toes, my knees, my shoulders, my head, my toes, my knees, my shoulders, my head, toes, knees, shoulders, and head. Okay, let's do it in Tagalog. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Paa, Toad, Balikat, Ulo. Toes, knees, shoulders, and head. That was really fun. And now it's time for us to listen to our special guest reader. She has a very fun book and I hope you guys have fun listening to her. So let's get on over and see who our special guest reader is. I'm Ms. Kathy and I'm a librarian here at the Billie Jean King Main Library. So today we're going to be reading a book called My First Book of Tagalog Words, an ABC rhyming book of Filipino language and culture by Liano Romulo, illustrated by Jaime Laurel. So let's get started. A is for Anak, which isn't my name, but that's what mama calls me, to say my child would be sort of the same. B is for Butikit, a house lizard, that's all. It climbs on the ceiling from where it could fall. Oh my gosh, have you ever seen a lizard like that before? C is for Champorado, chocolate and rice porridge, believe it or not. I have it for breakfast. It's best when it's hot. And I like to put milk on top too. D is for Dahon, leaves rustling coolly in the heat, on trees in our garden next to mangoes, heavy and sweet. E is for A1, that's what we say when we don't know the answer by the end of the day. F is for Filipino, that's what I am. I was born in the Philippines, that's me in the pram. G is for Galing, always so nice to hear a word of praise or approval. It brings me good cheer. What are they playing? Looks like they're playing soccer, huh? Do any of you play soccer? My kids play soccer, they love it. H is for Happy, a word mama uses at meals because it means to share half with my sister who squeals. I is for Ebon, a bird in the sky high up above, a cute little duckling or maybe a dove. J is for Jeepneys, miniature buses plying the street, they're noisy and colorful, I think they're neat. K is for Kumot, my favorite blanket, warm in my bed and then there's a pillow to cradle my head. L is for Lola, who loves me most of all. She's my grandmother, she comforts me when I fall. Do any of you have your lolas around? I love my Lola. M is for Majas, pulled snugly over my toes. I have green ones and white ones and a pair with rainbows. N is for Nako, just like oh no you'd exclaim if you broke something precious or lost in a game. Nako, did your family say that? My family says that all the time. O is for Hospital, where my sister was born. I brought her a toy, a bright yellow unicorn. P is for Bunsit, O Noodles, my favorite dish. It's nice with pork, beef or chicken, but please not with fish. Q is for Quezon, president during the Second World War. Overlooking Quezon City is a monument to him therefore. R is for Relo, a timepiece of any kind, so we're always on schedule and never run behind. S is for Salamat, that's what we say when we are grateful, it's the polite way. T is for Tahimik, shh, quiet, mama says to me while praying in church or reading in the library. U is for Umaga, the end of the night when mama kisses me good morning and dark becomes light. V is for Vegan, an old northern town with Spanish style mansions and beautiful furniture renowned. W is for Walla, meaning absent or none. When I wanted a cookie, Yaya said Walla, not even one. X is for X-Ray, just like in English we say, but in proper Tagalog it's written X-Ray. Y is for Yaya, my nanny so sweet, she loves me like a mother with a tenderness so complete. And Z is for Zipper, a word we hear every day but in Tagalog it's Zipper we say. Thanks everybody for joining me today. I had so much fun reading this book and I hope you can find it in the library someday. I'm going to turn it back over to Miss Denea. Bye everyone. That was a really great book that was read by Kathy. Thank you, Kathy, for reading to us and I hope you guys enjoyed listening to her story. So now let's count to 10 in English and Tagalog. So let's put out our arms and let's wave our hands and make a fist and we're going to count to 10 in English. Okay so we're going to start. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. That's how we count to 10 in English. Now let's count to 10 in Tagalog. Put out your arms, make a fist and we're going to go slow, okay?
