Baby Rhymetime 2nd March 2016

Opening Song: Hello Song* 

Welcome song* 

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.

Book: The very hungry caterpillar by Eric Carle

Bounce, bounce up and down  
Bounce baby  
Bounce, bounce, up and down
Bounce, bounce all around  
Bouncing fast Bouncing slow
Bounce, bounce... BOOM! 

Hey Diddle Diddle     
Hey, diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon
The little dog laughed to see such fun
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

Little frog
Bounce baby       
A little frog in a pond am I
Hippity hippity hop
And I can bounce in the air so high
Hippity hippity hop.

Little Miss Muffet
Little Miss Muffet, sat on a tuffet.
Eating her curds and whey.
Along came a spider
who sat down beside her.
And frightened Miss Muffet away.



Trot Old Joe
Bounce baby
Walk Old Joe, Walk Old Joe
You walk better than any horse I know

Bounce faster
Trot Old Joe, Trot Old Joe
You trot better than any horse I know

Bounce even faster
Gallop Old Joe, Gallop Old Joe
You gallop faster than any horse I know
Lean back
Whoahhhh Joe!

 I can bounce
 Bounce baby softly
 I can bounce as soft as you
 I can bounce as soft as you
 I can bounce as soft as you
 Bouncing on the spot

 I can bounce as slow as you         
 I can bounce as slow as you 
 I can bounce as slow as you
 Bouncing on the spot
   
 I can bounce as fast as you         
 I can bounce as fast as you 
 I can bounce as fast as you
 Bouncing on the spot.

Book: Where is the green sheep by Mem Fox

Peas Porridge Hot
Clap hands 
Peas porridge hot 
Peas porridge cold  
Peas porridge in the pot  
Nine days old. 
Some like it hot
Some like it cold
Some like it in the pot
Nine days old. 

Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star 
Twinkle, twinkle, little star  
Twinkle fingers
How I wonder what you are 
Up above the world so high
Lift baby up
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle little star  
Twinkle fingers
How I wonder what you are.

Horsey, Horsey
Bounce baby
Horsey Horsey come ride with me
Across the land, across the sea   
Horsey Horsey come ride with me
But do not let me fall.
Tip baby gently.

A Farmer Went Trotting
A farmer went trotting
Bounce baby on lap
Upon his grey mare
With his daughter behind him
So rosy and fair
Then a duck cried out "Quack"
Lift baby up
And they all tumbled down
Plop baby back onto your lap
Off of the horse
And upside down!
Tip baby gently backwards!

Dickery Dare  
Bounce baby
Dickery dickery dare  
lift baby   
The pig flew in the air  
The man in brown soon brought him down
Dickery, dickery dare!

Little Bo-Peep  
Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep
and doesn't know where to find them. 
Leave them alone and they will come home,   
wagging their tales behind them.

Little Boy Blue
Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn
The cow's in the meadow,
the sheeps in the corn
Where is the little boy who
looks after the sheep?
He's under the haystack, fast asleep.

One, two, three
One, two, three
Bounce your baby
Baby's on my knee
Rooster crows
Crow like a rooster
And away she go-o-o-es
Quickly lower your baby.

Book: Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell

Fiddle de dee 
Bounce baby

Fiddle de dee, fiddle de dee

The fly has married the bumble bee
They went to church,
And married was she
The fly has married the bumble bee!

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.

Round and round the garden
Round and round the haystack
Trace a circle in baby's palm
Went the little mouse
One step, two steps
Walk fingers up baby's arm
In his little house
Tap top of baby's head.


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.

Grand Old Duke of York
Oh, the Grand Old Duke of York
Bounce baby during marching
He had ten thousand men
He marched them up to the top of the hill
And he marched them down again
And when they were up they were up
Lift baby in the air
And when they were down they were down
Lower baby back on to lap
And when they were only half way up
They were neither up nor down.

I'm Bouncing 
Bounce your child on your knees 
I'm bouncing, bouncing everywhere, 
I bounce and bounce into the air 
I'm bouncing, bouncing like a ball, 
I bounce and bounce, then down I fall. 
Let child slip through your knees.


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! 
 

Incy Wincy Spider  
Incy Wincy spider climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain and washed poor Incy out.
Out came the sun, and dried up all the rain.
So Incy Wincy spider climbed up the spout again.

Two Little Magpies
Two little magpies sitting on a wall
(hold both hands up)
One named Jack, one named Jill

Come back Jack! Come back Jill!
(bring each hand back to the front). 

Humpty Dumpty

Poor Humpty Dumpty.

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping

Morning bells are ringing,
Morning bells are ringing
Ding dang, dong.
Ding dang, dong.

Baby Rhymetime 3rd February 2016

At Bowral Library we run a Baby rhymetime every Wednesday at 10.30am for children 0-2 years.

Older siblings are also welcome to come along.

This is a run down of what I do each week:

I open and close with the same songs every week. I read one book then we sing some songs.

When we finish our songs and stories I get out a bag of musical instruments. I put on a CD and play 4 or 5 songs and the children dance and play their instruments. Some weeks I give out scarves and we fly our scarves to a scarf song. Most weeks I also blow some bubbles while the parents and grandparents sing a bubble song.We then finish off with a bag of books that I put out for children to share with parents or grandparents. It's lovely to see how excited the children get when I bring out a bag of board books for sharing.

Here is what I repeat each week :

OPENING SONG:

This is the wave we wave hello
This is the way we wave hello
Wave hello, wave hello
This is the way we wave hello,
Hello, hello, hello!

WELCOME SONG:

Wecome everyone
Welcome, welcome, everyone
Now your here, we'll have some fun.
First we'll clap our hands just so
Then we'll bend and touch our toe.
Welcome, welcome, everyone
Now your here, we'll have some fun.

CLOSING SONG:

Goodbye song
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Raise your hands up high
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Wave and say goodbye.


Each week I add my program for that week to this blog. Some of you may want to sing some of the rhymes at home with your children.

I look forward to seeing you at baby rhymetime.
