First We Wave Our Hands Up High
(tune: "London Bridge")
First we wave our hands up high,
Hands up high, hands up high.
First we wave our hands up high,
Then we clap them!
Then we shake our hands down low,
Hands down low, hands down low.
Then we shake our hands down low,
Then we hide them!
First We Wave Our Hands Up High
(tune: "London Bridge")
First we wave our hands up high,
Hands up high, hands up high.
First we wave our hands up high,
Then we clap them!
Then we shake our hands down low,
Hands down low, hands down low.
Then we shake our hands down low,
Then we hide them!
Rhymes:
It's Raining
It's raining! It's raining!
How the wind does blow!
Raindrops falling from the sky.
Oops! One landed on my...nose!
Have fun with your little one by continuing this rhyme, choosing other parts of her body where a raindrop might land and unexpectedly tickle her! Raindrops might land on Baby's neck, toes, ears, back, tummy, knee, etc.
X Marks the Spot
X marks the spot,
(make an X on baby's chest or back)
with a dot, dot, dot,
(tap with finger on belly or back 3 times)
and a dash, and a dash,
(draw 2 lines on baby's chest or back)
and a question mark!
(draw a question mark with a dot)
Tickle up...
(tickle baby up to head)
and tickle down...
(tickle baby down to toes)
Tickle baby all around!
(tickle all over)
I Saw a Snake Go By One Day
(© Lois Simmie)
I saw a snake go by one day (make snake motion with arm)
Riding in his Chevrolet (hands on steering wheel)
He was long (extend arms to show "long")
And he was thin (arms show "thin")
And he didn't have a chin. (point to chin)
He had no chin,
But what the heck (shrug)
He had lots and lots and lots of neck! (touch or tickle baby's neck)

Our activity this week was Scarves!
Each Baby & Me Storytime includes activities that support one or more of the five early literacy practices identified as essential in helping your child develop the skills they need before they can learn to read. The five practices – singing, talking, reading, playing and writing –were developed for Every Child Ready to Read®, an initiative of the Association for Library Services for Children (ALSC) and the Public Library Association (PLA).
