Songs/Nursery Rhymes DVD

[Helen]

Hi

One of the down sides of being an older mother is that I can't remember any nursery rhymes or songs with actions. Some woman at a new Mum's club recently said to me incredulously "you mean you've never heard of Wind the Bobbin?!" Er... no. Doesn't get played much on Radio 2.

Can someone recommend a good DVD for me? I want something with stuff like "The Wheels on the Bus" and "Row, row, row your boat" and "Incy Wincy Spider". Songs with actions if you know what I mean.

I need help badly! The children have this toy that plays Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Four and Twenty Blackbirds and I have to make up the words!

i've just ordered a couple from amazon

Justin fletcher - nursery rhymes

i'd never heard of wind the bobin either!

 

[Tilly]

Wind the bobbin up
Wind the bobbin up
Pull pull
Clap clap clap

I loved that when I was little at school! I don't know most nursery rhymes, so I tend to make random songs up for Bethanie:

Milky, milky, milky
Milky, milky, moooo
Milky, milky, milky,
It could happen to youuu!!

or

Clappy, clappy, clappy,
Clappy, clappy, wooo
Clappy, clappy, clappy,
Shes a little poo!

Do you notice a pattern emerging here?

Yea try early learning centre, they're good

Sadly i now knoe all the words

Wind the bobbin up
Wind the bobbin up
Pull pull
clap clap clap

Wind it back again
Wind in Back again
Pull Pull
clap clap clap

point to the ceiling
point to the floor
point to the window
point to the door

clap your hands together
1 2 3
place them gently
On your knee.

Or something like that anyway!
