Wednesday Lapsit

Books:


The Farmer in the Dell by John O'Brien
Dogs by Emily Gravett

Today I added signs to our stories so we learned the signs for "dog", "cat", and "mouse" and I encouraged the parents to use the sign whenever the word was used in one of our books.

Rhymes:

Opening Song—big group
(to the tune of Mary Had a Little Lamb)

Hello eyes and hello nose,
Hello fingers, hello toes
Hello shirt and hello shoes,
Hello me and hello you.

Grey Squirrel

Grey squirrel, grey squirrel (bounce)
swish your bushy tail (swish knees side to side)
Grey squirrel, grey squirrel  (bounce)
swish your bushy tail (swish knees side to side)
Wrinkle up your little nose (touch baby’s nose)
Crack some acorns between your toes (touch baby’s toes)
Grey squirrel, grey squirrel  (bounce)
swish your bushy tail. (swish knees side to side)

Wheels on the Bus

Wheels on the bus go round and round
The people on the bus go up and down
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish
All through the town.

 We Hit the Floor Together
(to the tune of For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow)

We hit the floor together,
We hit the floor together,
We hit the floor together,
Because it’s fun to do!

Other verses:
We clap our hands together…
We wiggle our fingers together…
We hit the floor together...

 
Bumpin Up and Down

Bumpin’ up and down (bounce baby on lap)
In my little red wagon (3x)
Won’t you be my darling’
One wheel’s off (tilt baby to the left)
And the axel’s broken
One wheel’s off (tilt baby to the right)
And the axel’s broken
One wheel’s off (tilt baby to the left)
And the axel’s broken
Won’t you be my darlin’ (hug baby)


Hand Clap Song

Can you clap with two hands?
Two hands? Two hands?
Can you clap with two hands?
Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.

Can you kick with two feet?
Can you wiggle ten fingers?
Can you kiss with two lips?
Can you wave bye bye?

Bye Bye Bubbles
(to the tune of Frere Jacques)

Bye bye bubbles, bye bye bubbles,
See you soon, see you soon,  (x2)
