Action & Finger Play
Rhymes
Humpty Dumpty
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the King’s horses & all the King’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again
Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are

I Hear Thunder
I hear thunder, I hear thunder
Hark don’t you? Hark don't you?
Pitter, patter rain drops
Pitter, patter rain drops
I’m wet through. So are you.
This Little Piggy Went to Market
This little piggy went to market
This little piggy stayed home
This little piggy had roast beef
And this little piggy had none
And this little piggy cried
wee, wee, wee …….all the way home

The mouse ran up the clock
The clock struck one
The mouse ran down

Incy Wincy Spider
Incy Wincy Spider
Climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain
And washed poor Incy out
Out came the sunshine
And dried up all the rain
So Incy Wincy spider climbed
up the spout again

The Wheels on The Bus
The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All day long
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep,
All day long
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish,
All day long
The babies on the bus go bounce, bounce, bounce
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
The babies on the bus go bounce, bounce, bounce
All day long

Open, Shut Them
Open shut them, open shut them
Give a little clap
Open shut them, open shut them
Lay them in your lap
Creep them, creep them, creep them, creep them
Right up to your chin
Open wide your little mouth but…
Do not let them in!
Shake them, shake them, shake them, shake them
Don’t get in a muddle
Roll them, roll them, roll them, roll them
Give a little cuddle

Round and Round the Garden
Round and round the garden
Like a teddy Bear
One step...two step
Tickly under there!
These are Baby’s Fingers
These are baby’s fingers
These are baby’s toes
This is baby’s belly button
And this is baby’s nose

Touch your ears
Touch your ears, pat your nose
Tickle baby’s little toes
Hide your eyes
Where are you?
Baby’s playing peek-a-boo!
Rickety, Rickety Rocking Horse
Rickety, rickety rocking horse
Over the hills we go
Rickety, rickety rocking horse
Giddy-up, giddy-up….whoa!

Bubble Songs
Did you ever see a bubble, a bubble, a bubble?
Did you ever see a bubble that floated so high?
It reached the tree.
It’s higher than me.
Did you ever see a bubble that floated so high?
There are bubbles in the air, in the air.
There are bubbles in my hair, in my hair.
There are bubbles in the air.
There are bubbles in my hair.
There are bubbles everywhere, everywhere

To Market, To Market
To market, to market to buy a fat pig
Home again, home again, jiggetty jig
To market, to market to buy a fat hog
Home again, home again, jiggetty jog
The Grand Old Duke of York
The grand old Duke of York
He had ten thousand men
He marched them up to the top of the hill
Then he marched them down again
And when they were up, they were up
And when they were down, they were down
And when they were only half way up
They were neither up nor down

Puppet Songs
Hey Diddle Diddle
Hey diddle diddle
The cat and the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
The little dog laughed
To see such fun
And the dish ran away with the spoon
Galumph
Galumph went the little green frog one day
Galumph went the little green frog
Galumph went the little green frog one day
And he just went galumph, galumph, galumph
But we all know frogs go
La de da de da, la de da de da, la de da de da
We all know frogs go, la de da de da
They don't go galumph, galumph, galumph

Three Cheeky Monkeys
Three cheeky monkeys swinging in a tree,
Teasing Mr Crocodile...you can’t catch me, you can’t catch me
Along comes Mr Crocodile as quiet as can be
SNAP….monkey for tea.
Three Little Ducks
Three little ducks went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Mother Duck said
“Quack, quack, quack, quack”
And only two little ducks came back
