Interactive songs

faille · Sep 15th, 2009, 05:20 AM

Does anybody know any songs I can sing to LO which actually interact with them?

Only ones I know are 'wheels on the bus', 'head, shoulders, knees & toes' and 'if you're happy and you know it...'

Bit of a strange request I suppose but it's boring singing nursery rhymes when I can't really do anything to involve LO lol.. Plus she loves it when I actually involve her, got her first laugh out of wheels on the bus haha

Thanks x

The grand old duke of york! Lift baby up with it says up and down when it says down etc. Dylan likes this. Also row row row your boat. He likes Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose, where you make rabbit ears, touch there nose, swish their hands when it says it and fly when it says it etc.
We put actions to all nursery Rhymes!

5 little speckled frogs - the bit where they jump in the pool I bounce him on my knee

Horsey horsey u can bounce on ur leg and swish them when the tail goes swish

Can't remember who but someone on here posted about the grand old duke of york, you can lift them up and down, Noah loves that.

If I think of more I will post em!

Oh yes 1 more, well its not a nursery rhyme but I get 'the superman song' by black lace on you tube and make him do the actions. Its hilarious! In fact most of their songs have actions

A party wasn't a party in the 80s without a bit of black lace!

Ooh baby bounce and rhyme! That sounds like something Ruby would love. I must see if there's one near me.
