Going to Kentucky (trad)
I was going to Kentucky
I was going to the fair
To see a senorita
With flowers in her hair.

Let's shake it shake it baby.
Shake it if you can.
Shake it like a milkshake
And put it in the can.
Shake it to the bottom.
Shake it to the top.
Shake it around and around and around
Until it's time to stop.

Good Morning
Tune: Skip to My Lou. Lyrics: Sue Schnitzer
Good morning, how are you
Good morning, how are you
Good morning, how are you
How are you today?

Clap your hands …

Clap your feet …

Stretch up high …

Tickle your toes …

Twirl around …

Jump up and down …

Dance around …

Listen to the music …

Turn Around/Jack In the Box
Jack is quiet. Shhhhh. [Hold finger to mouth]
In his box. [Bend arm over head to make a lid]
Open the lid. [Lift arm slowly]
And up he pops [Pop up]

Wiggle and Whirl
(written by Sue Schnitzer)
Chorus:
Sha la la la la.
Sha la la la la.
Sha la la la la la la la la.
Wiggle and whirl
Giggle and swirl
There's music in the air.
Dance and sing
Jump and swing
There's music everywhere.

Hands clap
Toes tap
Feet stamp
Fingers snap
Pitty pat legs
Tom tom tum
Thumper chest
Your body's a drum

Chorus

Maracas shake
Bells ring
Sticks tap
Triangles ping
Tambourines jingle
Drums rat-a-tat
Cymbals crash
And voices sing

Chorus

Swing, Swing

I Like to Ride My Bicycle
I like to ride my bicycle, [lie on back and bicycle legs]
I ride it to the shop.
And when I see a big red light,
I know it's time to stop. [stop]

I like to ride my bicycle, [start bicycling]
I ride it to and fro.
And when I see a big green light,
I know it's time to go. [go fast]

Five Little Monkeys
Five little monkeys jumping on the bed, [bounce five fingers on open palm]
One fell off and bumped his head. [tap head]
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said, [hold phone to ear and dial]
"No more monkeys jumping on the bed." [shake finger]

Four …

Three …

Two …

One …

No little monkeys jumping on the bed.
No one fell off and bumped his head.
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,>
"Put those monkeys straight to bed!"

Jump, Jump, Jump
(music and verse one lyrics by K. Bayless. Additional lyrics by Sue Schnitzer)
You can jump, jump, jump like a little kangaroo.
If you jump, jump, jump, we will sing a song or two.

You can fly, fly , fly like a jet up in the sky.
You can fly, fly, fly like a jet up in the sky.
Spoken: Come on down for a smooth, soft landing.

You can slither, slither, slither, You can slither like a snake
You can slither, slither, slither, slither and hiss like a snake

You can crawl, crawl, crawl, you can crawl like a spider.
You can crawl, crawl, crawl, crawl like a spider

You can wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, like a wiggly little worm.
You can wiggle, wiggle, wiggle and jiggle like a worm.

You can jump, jump, jump like a little kangaroo
If you jump, jump, jump, we will sing a song or two.

Mr. Hippopotamus
One day Mr. Hippopotamus [tap rhythm on child’s shoulder or legs]
Went to take a ride upon the bus.
All the little girls and boys, they cried,
"Oooooh, you're squishing us!" [give your child a hug]

The Wheels On the Bus
The wheels on the bus go round and round [use feet or hands as wheels]
Round and round, round and round.
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All through the town [move arms through air]

The doors on the bus go open and shut [Open and shut arms. Shut with a clap.]

The driver on the bus says, "Move on back." [motion with arm]

The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish. [mimic wipers with your arms]

The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep. [gently tap child's nose or tummy]

The engine on the bus goes brrrm, brrrm, brrrm.

The people on the bus bounce up and down … [help child bounce up and down]

The children on the bus play peek-a-boo … [play peek-a-boo with your child]

The babies on the bus cry waah, waah, waah … [wipe eyes like crying]

The mommies on the bus go, shh, shh, shh [put finger to mouth]
The daddies …

The mommies on the bus say, "I love you." [hug child]
The daddies …

The Beehive
Here's the beehive. [make a fist]
Where are all the bees? [hold up your fist and look at it]
They're hidden inside where nobody sees. [place other hand over fist]
Let's look inside and count them. [turn fist a little, so when you raise your fingers they will show]
1-2-3-4-5. [Raise fingers with count]
Bzzzzzzzzzzzz. [Tickle]

Down By the Station
Down by the station early in the morning,
See the little puffer bellies all in a row.
See the station master pull the little handle.
Chug, chug, toot, toot, off we go.

I've Been Working On the Railroad
I've been working on the railroad
all the live long day.
I've been working on the railroad
just to pass the time away.
Can't you hear the whistle blowing ?
Rise up so early in the morn.
Can't you hear the captain shouting,
"Dinah, blow your horn."

Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow your horn, horn, horn.
Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow your horn.

Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah.
Someone's in the kitchen I know.
Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah,
Strumming on the old banjo.
And singing, "fee fi fiddle-i-o,
Fee, fi, fiddle-i-o.
Fee, fi fiddle-i-o."
Strumming on the old banjo.

Pokey Bear
[Pat legs, left, right, left, right ... slowly.]
Pokey bear, pokey bear,
Why are you so slow?
I don't know, I don't know,
I like to be slow

Run so fast, run so fast,[run hand on legs]
It is so much fun.
No, no, no. No, no, no.[shake head "no" and slow hands to a walk.]
I like to be slow.

Old MacDonald
Old MacDonald had a farm, e-i-e-i-o.
And on that farm he had a cow, e-i-e-i-o.
With a moo moo here and a moo, moo there.
Here a moo, there a moo, everywhere a moo, moo.
Old MacDonald had a farm, e-i-e-i-o.

Pig

Ducks

Chickens

Old MacDonald had a band e-i-e-i-o.
And in that band he had a harmonica …

Drums

Bass

Seesaw/Row Your Boat
Place child on or between your legs, facing you, hold hands, and see saw back and forth.
See saw Margery Daw
Jack shall have a new master
He shall earn but a penny a day
Because he can't work any faster.

for rowing, keep doing same see saw motion, or switch to rowing motion
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream.

Macaroni
I have a little pony, [bounce child on your legs]
His name is Macaroni.
He trots and trots and then he stops. [stop bouncing]
My funny little pony, [begin bouncing again]
Macaroni. [hold your child and roll onto your back]

BINGO
There was a farmer who had a dog
And Bingo was his name-o.
B-I-N-G-O, B-I-N-G-O.
B-I-N-G-O, and Bingo was his name-o.

Ring Around the Rosie
Ring around the rosies,
A pocket full of posies.
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down.

Banging on the rooftop.
Banging on the floor.
Everybody stand up,
When we count to four.
1, 2, 3, 4.

Twinkle Twinkle
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.

Peak-a-boo
Peak-a-boo, peak-a-boo, [play peak-a-boo]
I'm playing a game with you.
Peak-a-boo, peak-a-boo.
See if you can play it, too.

Repeat.

Allee galloo galloo.
Allee galloo gallee.
Allee galloo galloo gallee.
Wheee!

The More We Get Together
The more we get together, together, together.
The more we get together the happier we will be.
For your friends are my friends,
And my friends are your friends.
The more we get together the happier we will be.
