Round and round it goes. (circle finger on belly)
These are baby's eyes, (point to eyes)
And this is baby's nose, (touch nose)
And this is baby's bellybutton, (tickle tummy)
Right where Mommy blows! (blow raspberry on baby's tummy)

Bumpin' up and down (from Deschutes Library)
Bumpin' up and down in my little red wagon, (bounce baby)
Bumpin' up and down in my little red wagon,
Bumpin' up and down in my little red wagon,
Won't you be my darlin'?
One wheel's off and the axle's broken, (tilt baby to left)
One wheel's off and the axle's broken, (tilt baby to right)

Pop Goes the Weasel
All around the mulberry bush, (bounce baby)
The monkey chased the weasel.
The monkey thought was all in fun.
Pop goes the weasel! (lift baby up)
A penny for a spool of thread,
A penny for a needle,
That's the way the money goes,
Pop goes the weasel!

Tick tock, tick tock,
It's two o'clock!
CUCKOO! CUCKOO! (lift baby twice)
Wheels on the Bus
Literacy tip of the week: Songs and books that label body parts and other objects (such as "Look at the Baby") are a great way to build your baby's vocabulary.
