Book read: Wake up me! by Marni McGee
They're a part of me (to the tune of "Wheels on the Bus", from Miss Meg's Storytime)
I can make my hands go
Clap, clap, clap,
Clap, clap, clap,
Clap, clap, clap.
Because they're a part of me.
Other verses: Feet go stomp, lips go kiss, etc.
Come along and march with me (from Storytime Underground)
Come and march along with me,
Along with me.
Come and march along with me,
So early in the morning.
(Other actions can include spinning, hopping, bouncing, flying, etc)
Bumping up and down my little red fire truck (modified from 2015 CSLP manual)
Bumping up and down my little red fire truck, (bounce on lap)
Bumping up and down in my little red fire truck,
Bumping up and down in my little red fire truck,
Through the streets we go!
Rolling down the street in my blue police car, (roll hands around)
Rolling down the street in my blue police car,
Rolling down the street in my blue police car,
Through the streets we go!
Swaying back and forth in my little tugboat, (rock back and forth)
Swaying back and forth in my little tugboat,
Swaying back and forth in my little tugboat,
Through the waves we go!
Peekaboo (with scarves, from Jbrary)
Peekaboo, peekaboo,
I see you! I see you!
I see your button nose.
I see your tiny toes.
Peekaboo! Peekaboo!
Here we go up, up, up (with scarves, modified from Reading With Red)
Here we go up, up, up! (lift scarf)
Here we go down, down, down! (lower scarf)
Here we go back and forth! (sway scarf from side to side)
And here we go round and round! (spin scarf in a circle)
Itsy bitsy spider
Wheels on the bus
I'm a little cuckoo clock (from Born to Read)
Tick tock, tick tock, (rock baby back and forth)
I'm a little cuckoo clock.
Tick tock, tick tock,
It's one o'clock! (lift baby once)
Tick tock, tick tock,
I'm a little cuckoo clock.
Tick tock, tick tock,
It's two o'clock! (lift baby twice)
Literacy tip of the week: It is perfectly normal for your baby to explore books with their mouth. Board books and tub books are great for this purpose!
