Baby Hop
by Diaper Gym

Snuggle up together, baby’s in your lap
Snuggle up together, and clap, clap clap.
Snuggle up together, don’t you nap
Snuggle up together and tap, tap, tap.
You’re working out together, baby don’t stop
You’re working out together, now hop, hop, hop.
(Repeat)

Book: My Baby and Me
By Lynn Reiser

Roll, Roll, Roll Your Hands
tune: row, row, row your boat

Roll, roll, roll your hands, slowly as can be.
Roll, roll, roll your hands, do it now with me.
Roll, roll, roll your hands, fast, as fast can be.
Roll, roll, roll your hands, do it now with me.

Clap, clap, clap your hands…
Shake, shake, shake your hands…
Stamp, stamp, stamp your feet…

5 Pigs So Clean

Five pigs so squeaky clean, cleanest you’ve ever seen,
wanted to go outside and play. Uh huh!
One jumped into the mud, landed there with a thud.
Now there are four pigs squeaky clean. Oink, oink!
(Count down remaining pigs)

Put Your Finger On
by Parachute Express

Put your finger on, put your finger on, put your finger on your...nose!
Put your finger on, put your finger on, put your finger on your...nose!
Turn around and clap clap, Turn around and clap clap,
Turn around and clap clap, Turn around and clap clap.

Book: Bark George
By Jules Feiffer

Rocket

I am a rocket crouched on the ground,
(put arms over baby’s head for rocket’s nose)
Waiting quietly Without a sound (put finger to lips)
Light this fuse on my little toe, (wiggle baby’s toe)
Ready for take-off? Here we go!
5...4...3...2...1... Whoooooooosh!
(let baby jump, or lift baby into air)

We Can Wear (signing song)
Tune: Mary Wore Her Red Dress

We can wear our new shoes, new shoes, new shoes.
We can wear our new shoes all day long!

Talk, Read, Sing, Write, and Play with your baby.

Read: Rhyming books are good choices because they help your baby learn how rhyming words sound the same at the end and different at the beginning. Hearing the separate sounds in words help good readers sound words out when they read.
