the grand old duke of york? is that one?

'The grand old duke of york,
he had 10,000 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,
and when they were down, they were down.
And when they were only half way up they were neither up nor down!'

Alasdair loves that and row row row your boat:
'row row row your boat,
gently down the stream,
merrily merrily merrily merrily,
life is but a dream!

Sway sway sway your boat,
gently to and fro,
up and down and left and right,
around the world we go!'

Hi Toby also loves the grand old duke of york.
His favourite nursery rhyme is Wind The Bobbin Up:
Wind The Bobbin up, Wind The Bobbin up
Pull, Pull, Clap, Clap, Clap
Wind it back again, Wind it 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
One. Two. Three
Put your hands upon your knees

We go to a sing and bounce class he loves it x

Hush little baby is mine. I dont know all the words so i hum the ending lol

 

[beancounter]

Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird.
And if that mockingbird don't sing,
Daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
And if that diamond ring turn brass,
Daddy's gonna buy you a looking glass.
And if that looking glass gets broke,
Daddy's gonna buy you a billy goat.
And if that billy goat don't pull,
Daddy's gonna buy you a cart and bull.
And if that cart and bull turn over,
Daddy's gonna buy you a dog named Rover.
And if that dog named Rover won't bark.
Daddy's gonna buy you a horse and cart.
And if that horse and cart fall down,
Well you'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

Dec loves pat a cake

Pat a cake, pat a cake bakers man,
bake me a cake as fast as you can
pat it (clap hands)
and roll it (roll arms round and round)
and mark it with a b (we say D)
and put it in the oven for baby (we say Declan) and me.

I'm a little teapot

''I'm a little teapot, short and stout
Here is my handle
Here is my spout

When I get all steamed up
Then I shout
Just tip me over and pour me out''

I even do a little dance to it and she loves it!

Though this one amuses her, I sing the ''Twinkle, twinkle'' one when it's bedtime.

Brooke LOVES 'wiggly woo!!'

"there's a worm at the bottom of the garden
and his name is wiggly woo
there's a worm at the bottom of the garden
and all that he can do
is wiggle all night

people may say
there's a worm at the bottom of the garden. . .
and his name is wiggly
wig-wig-wiggly
wig-wig wiggly woo. . . "

row row row your boat
gently down the stream
merrily merrily merily merily
life is but a dream

row row row your boat
gently down the river
if you see a polar bear
dont forget to shiver (shivers)

row row row your boat
gently along the shore
if you see a lion
dont forget to roar (roars)

row row row your boat
gently down the stream
if you see a crocodile
dont forget to scream (screams)

rock rock rock your boat
gently to and fro
wibbly wobbly wibbly wobbly
into the water you go (splash)
