WHO’S HERE TODAY? PAT-A-CAKE ROUND THE GARDEN


Tune: The Farmer in the Dell
Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, Baker’s man, Round and round the garden,
________’s here today, Bake me a cake, as fast as you can. Went the Teddy Bear.
________’s here today, Roll it, pat it, and mark it with a “B,” One step, two steps,
We’re so glad that _______’s here, And put it in the oven, for Baby and me. Tickle under there.
Let’s all shout, “ Hurray!”
Clap and gesture to rhyme. Draw a circle on Baby’s palm. Walk
“Hurray!” fingers up Baby’s arm, then gently tickle.
Name and lift each baby.

SO BIG I HEAR THUNDER THIS LITTLE PIGGY


How big is _______? I hear thunder, I hear thunder. This little piggy went to market.
_______ is sooooooo big. What should we do? This little piggy stayed home.
Name each baby and ask What should we do? This little piggy had roast beef.
Parent to share what’s new. Pitter-patter rain drops. This little piggy had none.
Pitter-patter rain drops. And this little piggy cried,
WHAT’S NEW? I’m all wet. Wee, wee, wee, all the way home.
So are you! Touch each of Baby’s toes as you say the rhyme.
Clap and gesture to rhyme.

JACK AND JILL CRISS CROSS APPLESAUCE

Jack and Jill went up the hill, Criss cross applesauce,


To fetch a pail of water. A cool breeze,
Jack fell down, A tight squeeze,
And broke his crown, And a tickle, tickle, tickle,
And Jill came tumbling after. As you please.
Slide Baby up and down on knees. Draw an X on Baby’s tummy. Blow
on Baby’s neck and tickle and hug gently.
