Here we go up, up, up (from Reading With Red)
Here we go up, up, up! (reach up)

And here we go round and round! (turn around)
I can run as fast as you (from A Library Geek)

I can run as fast as you,
I can run as fast as you,
Running on the spot!

I can jump as high as you.
I can crouch as low as you.
Grand Old Duke of York (from Perry Public Library)
Oh, the Grand Old Duke of York, (bounce baby)
He had ten thousand men.
He marched them up to the top of the hill, (lift baby)
And he marched them down again. (bring baby down)
And when they're up, they're up, (lift baby)
And when they're down, they're down, (bring baby down)
And when they're only halfway up, (bring baby halfway up)
They're neither up nor down. (lift baby down then up)
Dump Truck (from ALSC listserv)
Dump truck, dump truck (bounce baby on lap)
Bumping down the road.
Spilling gravel as we travel (rock child back and forth)
with our heavey load.
Dump truck, dump truck (bouncing)
DUMP! (tip child backwards)

Literacy tip of the week: Incorporate books into your baby's daily routine. This will make it easier to include as part of every day. For instance you can read a book before bedtime each night.
