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)

swish your bushy tail. (swish knees side to side)
The Big Gigantic Spider

Pat a Cake

Pat a cake, pat a cake, baker’s men
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it and pat it and mark it with a “B”
And put it in the oven for baby and me.

Wheels on the Bus

Wheels on the bus go round and round (cirlce arms)
The people on the bus go up and down (Lift Baby)
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish (Rock baby side to side)
All through the town.

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

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

Little Red Wagon

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?

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

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