Let's All Do a Little Clapping

Let's all do a little clapping,
Let's all do a little clapping,
and spread winter cheer!

Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear (modified from classic version)
Teddy bear, teddy bear, turn around.
Teddy bear, teddy bear, touch the ground.
Teddy bear, teddy bear, touch your knees.
Teddy bear, teddy bear, bounce around please.

We Hit the Floor Together (to the tune of "The Farmer in the Dell", from Abby Librarian)
We hit the floor together,
We hit the floor together,
We hit the floor together,
Because it's fun to do!
Repeat with different actions: clap hands, nod heads, sway side to side, say hello, etc.

I'm a little cuckoo clock (from KCLS)
Tick tock, tick tock, (rock back and forth)

Tick tock, tick tock,
It's one o'clock!
CUCKOO! (jump once)

Tick tock, tick tock,
I'm a little cuckoo clock!
Tick tock, tick tock,
It's two o'clock!
CUCKOO! CUCKOO! (jump twice)

10 Little Bubbles (while popping bubbles, to the tune of "Ten Little Indians")
One little,
Two little,
Three little bubbles,
Four little,
Five little,

Ten little bubbles in the air.

We roll the ball
We roll the ball to (insert baby's name),
We roll the ball to (name)
To (name), To (name)
We roll the ball to (name).
And then they roll it back.

Literacy tip of the week: Make songs more fun by adding your baby's name to them. It is a great way to engage their attention.
