Week 6

Rhymes:
This little pig had a rub-a-dub-dub (wash one leg)
This little pig had a scrub-a-scrub-scrub (wash the other leg)
This little pig ran upstairs (run finger up child's arms)
This little pig called out,"Teddy Bear" (say in big voice)
Down came a jar with a great big slam (slap hands on water)
And this little piggy ate all of the jam. Yum, yum, yum! (rub child's tummy)

Bounces:
She fell into the bathtub
She fell into the sink
She fell into the raspberry jam
And came out pink!
We put her in the backyard
And left her in the rain
By half past suppertime
It washed her clean again!

After my bath I try, try, try
To wipe myself 'til I'm dry, dry, dry
Hands to wipe and fingers and toes
And two wet legs and a shiny nose
Just think how much less time I'd take
If I were a dog and could shake, shake, shake!

Down at the bottom of the deep blue sea
Catching fishes for our tea
With a one and a two and a three! (lift baby)

Songs:
1 button, 2 buttons, 3 buttons, 4
Changing baby's diaper like we did before
4 buttons, 3 buttons, 2 buttons, 1
Changing baby's diapers, now we're done
Lots of fun! Nice clean bum!

Splish splash water (Tune: Frere Jacques)
Splish splash water
On your toes, on your toes
On your fingers, on your fingers
On your nose, on your nose
Splish splash water
Splish splash water
On your hair, on your hair
On your face, on your face
Everywhere, everywhere!

This is the way we wash our hands
Wash our hands, wash our hands
This is the way we wash our hands
So early in the morning
(wash face, hair, tummy, give a kiss)

What's the matter with Dickery Dean?
He jumped right in to the washing machine
Nothing's the matter with Dickery Dean
He dove in dirty and jumped out clean.

Rain on the green grass
Rain on the trees
Rain on the housetop
But not on me!

It's raining, it's pouring
The old man is snoring
He went to bed with a bump on his head
And he couldn't get up in the morning.

Hands are clapping, clap, clap, clap
Hands are clapping, clap, clap, clap
Hands are clapping, clap, clap, clap
Clap your hands my darling.
(toes are tapping, arms are swinging, tongues are clicking, lips are smacking)

1 little, 2 little, 3 little fingers
4 little, 5 little, 6 little fingers
7 little, 8 little, 9 little fingers
10 little fingers make two little hands.
(10 little toes make tow little feet)

Legs apart, legs together
Legs apart, Boo!
Legs apart, legs together, I love you!
One potato, two potato,
Three potato, Boo!

Pat your head
And rub your tummy
Tickle your toes
And hug your mommy!

This is mama kind and dear
This papa standing near
This is brother, see how tall
This is sister, not so tall
This is baby sweet and small
This is the family one and all.

Bounces:
Kissy, kissy fingers
Kissy, kissy toes
Kissy, kissy baby
On your kissy, kissy nose!

Mother and Father and Uncle John
Went to town one by one
Mother fell off
Father fell off
But Uncle John went on and on and on!

Wash the dishes
Dry the dishes
Ring the bell for tea
Three good wishes
Three good kisses
I will give to thee!

Songs:
Let's clap our hands together
Let's clap our hands together
Let's clap our hands together
Because it's fun to do!
(tap our legs, tickle our tummies, etc...)

I love mommy, I love mommy (Tune: Frere Jacques)
Yes I do, yes I do
Mommy's are for hugging
Mommy's are for kissing
I love you, yes I do!

Tony Chestnut
Knows I love you
Tony knows
Tony knows
Tony Chestnut
Knows I love you
That's what Tony Chestnut knows!

Your Dada is your Dada (Tune: Adams Family)
Your Dada is your Dada
Your Dada is your Dada
But I'm your mama-ma
Mama-ma-ma (clap clap)
Mama-ma-ma (clap clap)
Mama-ma-ma, Mama-ma-ma, Mama-ma-ma!

Eeny meeny miney mo
Let me hear your lips go

Let me hear it one more time

Higglety Pigglety pop
The dog has eaten the mop
The pig's in a hurry
The dog's in a flurry
Higglety Pigglety POP!

There is a cobbler on our street
Mending shoes for little feet
With a bang, and a bang, and a bang, bang, bang.
Mending shoes to make them strong
Mending shoes the whole day long
With a bang, and a bang, and a bang, bang, bang!

Here is baby's ball
Big and soft and round
Here is baby's hammer
Listen to it pound
Here is baby's trumpet
Toot, toot, toot, toot, toot.
And here is baby's favourite game
It's called Peek-a-boo!


Bounces:
I bounce you here, I bounce you there
I bounce you, bounce you everywhere.
I tickle you here, I tickle you there
I tickle you, tickle you everywhere.
I hug you here, I hug you there
I hug you, hug you everywhere!

Songs:
Can you play at peek-a-boo?
I can play at peek-a-boo.
Are you there?
Yes I am.
Are you there?
Yes I am.
Peek-a, peek-a, peek-a-boo!

Zoom, zoom, zoom
We're going to the moon
Zoom, zoom, zoom
We'll be there very soon
If you want to take a trip
Climb aboard my rocket ship
Zoom, zoom, zoom
We're going to the moon.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1 - ZOOM!

Finger family's up
And finger family's down
Finger family's dancing all around the town
Dance them on your shoulders
Dance them on your head
Dance them on your knees
Then tuck them into bed.
