Hello everybody and how are you?
How are you, how are you?
Hello everybody and how are you?
How are you today?

Who’s that, tapping at my window
Who’s that, knocking at my door?
Malak tapping at my window,
Alice knocking at my door.

One little baby
Rocking in a tree
Two little babies
Splashing in the sea
Three little babies
Crawling on the floor
Four little babies
Knocking at the door
Five little babies
Playing hide and seek
Don’t look now
Till I say peek!

Come a look a see
Here's my mom
Come a look a see
Here's my pop
Come a look a see
Brother tall
Sister, baby,
I love them all

Shake your shaker just like this
Just like this, just like this
Shake your shaker, just like this
Shaking, you and me.
Stretch up high . . .
Shake it low now . . .
Turn around now . . .

Can you shake along with me?
Along with me, along with me,
Can you shake along with?
Put your shaker on your... knee

Shake your shaker
Shake shake shake
Shake shake shake
Shake shake shake
Shake your shaker
Shake shake shake
Shake your shaker
Shake your shaker
High, high, high (etc.)
Low low low
Fast
Slow

(tune of Frere Jacques)
Hello Bubbles Hello Bubbles
Come and land, come and land
Right in the middle, right in the middle
Of my hand, of my hand
(call & response;
Please sing on second line as I blow bubbles)

One little, two little, three little bubbles
Four little, five little, six little bubbles
Seven little, eight little, nine little bubbles
Ten little bubbles go POP POP POP
Pop, pop, pop, let’s pop those bubbles
Pop, pop, pop, let’s pop those bubbles
Pop, pop, pop, let’s pop those bubbles,
at the library!

There are bubbles in the air, in the air
There are bubbles in the air, in the air
There are bubbles in the air,
there are bubbles everywhere
There are bubbles in the air, in the air.
There are bubbles way up high
(way up high in the sky)
There are bubbles way down low,
(there are bubbles on your toes)

This is big big big
This is small small small
This is short short short
This is tall tall tall
This is fast fast fast
This is slow slow slow
This is yes yes yes
This is no no no

Five little people fast asleep,
One by one, out they creep.
Five little people wide awake now,
One by one they take a bow

Old MacDonald had a farm,
E I E I O!

The animals on the farm
The animals on the farm
Heigh ho the dairy-o
The animals on the farm
The pigs roll in the mud …
The sheep grow their wool …
The ducks swim in the pond …
The froggies jump and swim …
The rabbits hop and play …

Hello everybody and how are you?
How are you, how are you?
Hello everybody and how are you?
How are you today?

Who’s that, tapping at my window
Who’s that, knocking at my door?

Five little animals jumping on the bed
The monkey fell off and bumped his head
Papa called the doctor and the doctor said,
“No more monkeys, jumping on the bed!”

Three little monkeys
Hanging in a tree
Eating a banana
Just like me
One had a frown
One had a grin
And one had banana
All over his chin!

I’m gonna shake, shake, shake my sillies out,
Shake, shake, shake my sillies out,
Shake, shake, shake my sillies out,
Wiggle my waggles all away
Stretch, yawn, jump, clap

Can you shake along with me?
Along with me, along with me,
Can you shake along with?
Put your shaker on your... knee

Shake it to the east
Shake it to the west
Shake it all around
and then you take a rest
Shake your shaker up
Shake your shaker down
Shake it, shake it, shake it,
and then you settle down.

One two three [toes, knees, shoulders]
Doggie got a flea
Doggie got a flea and now it’s on me!
[toes knees shoulders head shoulders knees toes]
It’s on my nose--
It’s on my toes--
It’s on my ear--
It’s over here!
It’s on my thumb--
It’s on my tum!

Did you ever see a pumpkin
A pumpkin, a pumpkin
Did you ever see a pumpkin
That grows on a vine?
A short one, a tall one,
A big one, a small one,
Did you ever see a pumpkin
That grows on a vine?

Butterfly wings go fluttering by
Down to the flowers,
Up to the sky
Butterfly wings tickle your toes
Butterfly wings land right on your nose!

Little Arabella Miller
Had a little caterpillar
First he crawled upon her mother
Then upon her baby brother
Little Arabella Miller,
Take away your caterpillar!
Little Arabella Miller
Took her fuzzy caterpillar
Put him on a branch up high
Soon to be a butterfly
They said “Arabella Miller,
Now we love your caterpillar!”

Under a rock where the ground was firm
Lived a squiggly jiggly wiggly worm
He popped out his head and I said “Good Day!”
That wiggly worm just wiggled away!

I’m stretching very tall
And now I’m very small
Now tall
Now small
Now I’m a tiny ball

I see Let’s count them all together
One, two, three!

Bzzzz, bzzz, bzzz!

I have 10 little fingers
They all belong to me
I can make them do things
Would you like to see
I can make them shut tight
I can open them wide
I can put them all together
And fold my hands just so
I can make them jump high
I can make them jump low
I can fold them all together
And sit just so

As I was walking down the street
Down the street, down the street
As I was walking down the street
Heigh ho, heigh ho, heigh ho
A snowy babe I chanced to meet
Chanced to meet, chanced to meet
A snowy babe I chanced to meet
Heigh ho, heigh ho, heigh ho
Rig a jig jig and away we go
Away we go, away we go
Rig a jig jig and away we go
Heigh ho, heigh ho, heigh ho

And my friends are your friends
The more we get together

Then you spread the jam
You put a slice of bread on top
And eat up all you can
You take your sticky fingers
And you wipe them on your pants
And you do a little wiggle
For the peanut butter dance!
