Baby Storytime 27th February 2014


Opening Song: Hello song*

Opening Action Rhyme:

Where is baby?
Where is baby? Where is baby?
There (s) he is! There (s) he is!
I'm so glad to see you
I'm so glad to see you
Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

Book: Where is the green sheep? by Mem Fox

Bubble Song
I blew bubbles
Everybody look at me. Pretty bubbles you will see.
Red and green and yellow, too, floating through the air for you.
Will they break before they land? Can you catch one in your hand.


Muffin Man
Bounce child
Oh, do you know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man,
Oh, do you know the muffin man,
That lives on Drury Lane?


Down by the Station
Down by the station, early in the morning,
All the little puffer trains stand in a row,
The man in the engine pulls a little lever,
Toot-toot! Choo!- choo! Off we go!


Down by the farmyard, early in the morning,
All the little tractors standing in a row,
The man on the tractor pulls a little lever
Brmm! brmm! Off we go!

Round and round the garden
Round and round the garden
Trace circle in baby's palm
Like a teddy bear
One step, two steps

Walk fingers up baby's arm

Tickle you there!
Give baby a tickle

Round and round the gardenLike a little mouse
One step, two steps,
In his little house.

One, Two, Three
One, two, three
Bounce your baby on your knees
Baby's on my knee
Rooster crows

Crow like a rooster
And away she go-o-o-es.

Quickly lower your baby

Giddyap, Giddyap
Giddyap, giddyap, ride to town, (bounce baby on knees, facing forward)
Giddyap, giddyap, up and down.(lift your legs up and down, holding on to your baby)
Giddyap fast! (bounce quickly)
Giddyap slow! (bounce slowly)
Giddyap, giddyap, giddyap, WHOA! (dip baby backwards gently)
 
Hey diddle diddle
Hey, diddle, diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon;
The little dog laughed
To see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

Opening Action Rhyme:

Where is baby?
Where is baby? Where is baby?
There (s) he is! There (s) he is!
I'm so glad to see you

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

Book: Dear zoo by Rod Campbell

Jack and Jill
Bounce baby
Jack and Jill went up the hill
to fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown
and Jill came tumbling after.

Pancake
Mix a pancake, stir a pancake
Draw circles on baby's tummy
Pop it in the pan
"Pop" baby in your lap
Fry the pancake
Rock baby
Toss the pancake
lift baby in the air
Catch it if you can!
Give baby a big hug!

Three Cheeky Monkeys
Bounce baby
Three little monkeys jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head
Mommy called the Doctor and the Doctor said,
"No more monkeys jumping on the bed!"

Two little monkeys jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head
Mommy called the Doctor and the Doctor said,
"No more monkeys jumping on the bed!"

One little monkey jumping on the bed
She fell off and bumped her head
Mommy called the Doctor and the Doctor said,
"No more monkeys jumping on the bed!"

  Humpty Dumpty
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses and all the King's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again......

Trot along to Boston
Trot trot to Boston.
Bounce baby on knees
Trot along to Lynn.
Watch out baby or you might fall in!

Trot trot to London.
Bounce baby on knees

Trot trot to Dover.
Watch out baby or you might fall over!

Bounce One, Two, Three
Bounce baby
Bounce, bounce, bounce my baby,
Bounce her one, two, three.
The more we bounce, the more we count,
So what will our count be?
One, two,three and four,
Five, six and seven,
The more we bounce, the more we count,
Eight, nine, ten, eleven.

Old Mother Hubbard
Old Mother Hubbard
Went to the cupboard
To get her poor dog a bone;
But when she got there
The cupboard was bare, 
And so the poor dog had none.

Baby Storytime 13th February 2014

Opening Song: Hello song*

Opening Action Rhyme:

Where is baby?
Where is baby? Where is baby?
There (s) he is! There (s) he is!
I'm so glad to see you
I'm so glad to see you
Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

Ride away
Ride away, ride away, 
(Bounce baby on lap)
Johnny shall ride,
And he shall have pussy-cat
Tied to one side; 
(Slip baby to one side)
And he shall have a puppy dog
Tied to the other, 
(slip baby to the other side)
And Johnny shall ride
To see his grandmother.

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.

Going to Kentucky
Bounce baby
We're going to Kentucky
We're going to the fair
To see the pretty ladies
With flowers in her hair.
Shake it baby shake it,
Shake it if you can,
Shake it like a milkshake,
And shake it once again.
Shake it to the bottom,
Shake it to the top.
Now turn around and turn around
Until you make a stop.
S-T-O-P spells stop.

Pat-a-cake
Pat-a-cake, pat-a cake,
Clap to the rhythm
baker's man,
Bake me a cake just as fast as you can.
Pat it and roll it, and mark it with B.

Trace the letter B in baby's palm
And put it in the oven for baby and me.


Bounce, tickle and hug
Bounce baby
I bounce you here,
I bounce you there
I bounce you, bounce you everywhere!

Tickle baby
I tickle you here,
I tickle you there
I tickle you, tickle you everywhere!

Hug baby
I hug you here.
I hug you there
I hug you, hug you everywhere!

Cobbler, Cobbler
Cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe
Get it done by half past two.
Half past two is much too late!
Get it done by half past eight.




Bumping up and Down
Bounce baby
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Won't you be my darling.
