Lyrics: My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

My Bonnie lies over the ocean,
My Bonnie lies over the sea.
My Bonnie lies over the ocean,
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

The winds will blow over the ocean,
The winds will blow over the sea.
The winds will blow over the ocean,
To bring back my Bonnie to me.


Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back, 
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

Here we go 'round the mulberry bush,
The mulberry bush, the mulberry bush.
Here we go 'round the mulberry bush,
So early in the morning.

This is the way we wash our clothes,
Wash our clothes, wash our clothes.
This is the way we wash our clothes,
So early Monday morning.

This is the way we iron our clothes,
Iron our clothes, iron our clothes.
This is the way we iron our clothes,
So early Tuesday morning.

This is the way we mend our clothes,
Mend our clothes, mend our clothes.
This is the way we mend our clothes,
So early Wednesday morning.

This is the way we sweep the floor,
Sweep the floor, sweep the floor.
This is the way we sweep the floor,
So early Thursday morning.

This is the way we scrub the floor,
Scrub the floor, scrub the floor.
This is the way we scrub the floor,
So early Friday morning.

This is the way we bake our bread,
Bake our bread, bake our bread.
This is the way we  bake our bread,
So early Saturday morning.

This is the way we go to church,
Go to church, go to church.
This is the way we go to church,
So early Sunday morning.

Lyrics: The Muffin Man

Oh, do you know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man?
Oh do you know the muffin man,
He lives on Drury Lane?

Oh, yes I know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man.
Oh, yes I know the muffin man,
He lives on Drury Lane.

Lyrics: The More We Get Together

The more we get together, together, together,
The more we get together, the happier we'll be.
'Cause your friends are my friends and my friends are your friends,
The more we get together the happier we'll be.

Lyrics: Mr. Sun

Oh, Mister Sun, Sun,
Mister Golden Sun,
Please shine down on me.

Oh, Mister Sun, Sun,

Hiding behind the trees;
These little children are asking you,
To please come out so we can play with you.


Oh, Mister Sun, Sun,

Oh, Mister Sun, Sun,
Mister Golden Sun,
Please shine down on, please shine down on,
Please shine down on me!!

Lyrics: Michael Finnegan

There was an old man named Michael Finnegan.
He had whiskers on his chinnegan.
They grew out and then grew in again.
Poor old Michael Finnegan.
Begin again.

There was an old man named Michael Finnegan.
He went fishing with a pinnegan.
Caught a fish and dropped it in again.
Poor old Michael Finnegan.
Begin again.

There was an old man named Michael Finnegan.
He grew fat and then grew thin again.
Then he died and had to begin again.
Poor old Michael Finnegan.
Begin again.

Lyrics: Mary Had a Little Lamb

Mary had a little lamb,
Little lamb, little lamb.
Mary had a little lamb,
It's fleece was white as snow.

Everywhere that Mary went,
Mary went, Mary went,
Everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go.

It followed her to school one day,
School one day, school one day.
It followed her to school one day,
Which was against the rules.

It made the children laugh and play,
Laugh and play, laugh and play.
It made the children laugh and play,
To see a lamb at school.

And so the teacher turned it out,
Turned it out, turned it out.
And so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near.

And waited patiently about,
Patiently about, patiently about.
And waited patiently about,
Till Mary did appear.

"Why does the lamb love Mary so?
Love Mary so, Love mary so?
Why does the lamb love Mary so?"
The eager children cry.

"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know,
Loves the lamb, you know; loves the lamb, you know.
Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know,"
The teacher did reply.

Lyrics: Lullaby and Goodnight

Lullaby, and goodnight,
With pink roses bedight,
With lilies o'erspread,
Is my baby's sweet head.
Lay you down now, and rest,
May your slumber be blessed!
Lay you down now, and rest,
May thy slumber be blessed!

Lullaby, and goodnight,
You're your mother's delight,
Shining angels beside
My darling abide.
Soft and warm is your bed,
Close your eyes and rest your head.
Soft and warm is your bed,
Close your eyes and rest your head.

Sleepyhead, close your eyes.
Mother's right here beside you.
I'll protect you from harm,
You will wake in my arms.
Guardian angels are near,
So sleep on, with no fear.
Guardian angels are near,
So sleep on, with no fear.

Lullaby, and sleep tight.
Hush!  My darling is sleeping,
On his sheets white as cream,
With his head full of dreams.
When the sky's bright with dawn,
He will wake in the morning.
When noontide warms the world,
He will frolic in the sun.

Lyrics: Looby Loo

Lyrics: London Bridge

London Bridge is falling down,
Falling down, falling down.
London Bridge is falling down,
My fair lady.

Build it up with wood and clay,
Wood and clay, wood and clay.
Build it up with wood and clay,
My fair lady.

Wood and clay will wash away,
Wash away, wash away.
Wood and clay will wash away,
My fair lady.

Build it up with bricks and mortar,
Bricks and mortar, bricks and mortar.
Built it up with bricks and mortar,
My fair lady.

Bricks and mortar will not stay,
Will not stay, will not stay.
Bricks and mortar will not stay,
My fair lady.

Build it up with iron and steel,
Iron and steel, iron and steel.
Build it up with iron and steel,
My fair lady.

Iron and steel will bend and bow,
Bend and bow, bend and bow.
Iron and steel with bend and bow,
My fair lady.

Build it up with silver and gold,
Silver and gold, silver and gold.
Build it up with silver and gold,
My fair lady.

Silver and gold will be stolen away,
Stolen away, stolen away.
Silver and gold will be stolen away,
My fair lady.

Set a man to watch all night,
Watch all night, watch all night.
Set a man to watch all night,
My fair lady.

Suppose the man should fall asleep,
Fall asleep, fall asleep.
Suppose the man should fall asleep,
My fair lady.

Give him a pipe to smoke all night,
Smoke all night, smoke all night.
Give him a pipe to smoke all night,
My fair lady.

Little Miss Muffet

Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider,
Who sat down beside her,
And frightened Miss Muffet away.

Little Jack Horner

Little Jack Horner
Sat in a corner
Eating his Christmas pie.
He put in his thumb,
And pulled out a plum,
And said, "What a good boy am I."

Lyrics: Little Bunny Foo Foo

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And boppin' 'em on the head.

Down came the good fairy and she said,
"Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don't want to see you
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.
I'll give you three chances,
And if you don't behave,
I'll turn you into a goon!"

The next day:

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And boppin' 'em on the head.

Down came the good fairy and she said,
"Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don't want to see you 
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.
I'll give you two more chances,
And if you don't behave,
I'll turn you into a goon!"

The next day:

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And boppin' 'em on the head.

Down came the good fairy and she said,
"Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don't want to see you 
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.
I'll give you one more chance,
And if you don't behave,
I'll turn you into a goon!"

The next day:

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And boppin' 'em on the head.

Down came the good fairy and she said,
"Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don't want to see you 
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.
I'll gave you three chances,
And you didn't behave,
Now you're a goon.  Poof!"

The moral of the story is:
Hare today, goon tomorrow.

Lyrics: Little Boy Blue

Little Boy Blue come blow your horn!
The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn.
Where is the boy who looks after the sheep?
He's under the haystack fast asleep.
Will you wake him?  No, not I; for if I do he's sure to cry.

Lyrics: Little Bo Peep

Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep,
And doesn't know where to find them.
Leave the alone,
And they'll come come,
Wagging their tails behind them.

Little Bo Peep fell fast asleep,
And dreamt she heard them bleating,
But when she awoke,
She found it a joke,
For they were still a-fleeting.

Then she took her little crook,
Determined for to find them;
She found them indeed,
But it made her heart bleed,
For they'd left all their tails behind them.

Lyrics: Let it Snow

Oh, the weather out side is frightful,
But the fire outside is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

It doesn't show signs of stopping,
And I brought some corn for popping.
The lights are turned way down low,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm,
But if you really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still goodbyeing,
But as long as you love me so,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm,
But if you really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still goodbyeing,
But as long as you love me so,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Jobs Felt Board

Police Officer


Dentist

Nurse and Patient (bandages, cast)

Nurse and Doctor

Shapes/Colors Felt Board

I would suggest cutting out a small, medium, and large of each shape/color.  This gives options of sorting by shape, color, and size.

Transportation Felt Board

Make cars, trucks, trains, airplanes, etc.

Healthy Eating Felt Board

Make foods that the child can separate into food groups.  You can also make some junk foods and have your child choose the healthy options.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar Felt Board


Place the fruit on the board as you read the book.

Halloween Felt Board


You can use this for the song 5 Little Pumpkins and you can let your child create different faces on the Jack-O-Lanterns.


5 Little Pumpkins
Five little pumpkins sitting on the gate,
 The fist one said, "Oh, my, it's getting late."
The second one said, "There are bats in the air."
The third one said, "Oh, I don't care."
The fourth one said, "Let's run, let's run."
The fifth one said, "I'm ready for some fun."
Then oooh went the wind and out went the lights
Then those five little pumpkins rolled out of sight.

Fabric Remnants Feltboard

I found some remnants at the local fabric store and decided to pick up some that would work great for storyboards.  I attached the fabric to felt with spray adhesive, sprayed an arcryllic sealant on them, and then cut out the pieces that I wanted.  I think they turned out awesome!  

My son love VeggieTales so those were a hit.  He doesn't care much about the car at this point.

Depending on what kind of fabric you have, you can do a lot with theses.  
For example:  Look at the robots below.  There are exact pairs and there are mirror images.  You could play a matching game with them.
I couldn't pass up these ballerina fairies.  They aren't exactly "boyish" but what story is worth telling that doesn't have a magical fairy?
I am definitely going to keep my eyes peeled any time I find myself in a fabric store.

Happy hunting!

Fish Felt Board


5 Little Fish
Five little fish swimming by the shore,
One got caught and then there were four.

Four little fish swimming in the sea,
One got caught and then there were three.

Three little fish swimming in the blue,
One got caught and then there were two.

Two little fish swimming in the sun,
One got caught and then there was one.

One little fish swimming for home,
Decided twas beast to never roam.


5 Little Fishies
Five little fishes

"You can't catch me!"
Along came Mr. Shark
As quiet as can be
SNAP!

No little fishes swimming in the sea.



Fillers

Want to make a sensory bin but don't know what to use for a filler?  Here are some ideas.

Aluminum Foil
Cereal
Dirt
Easter Grass
Fabric Scraps
Ice Cubes
Jello
Leaves
Oatmeal
Pudding
Rice
Rocks
Sand
Shaving Cream
Shredded Paper
Snow
Spaghetti
Water

Rainbow Rice

Here it is...Rainbow Rice!

It's super easy to make.  Get a 5 lb. bag of rice.  Divide it into 6 Ziplock bags.

Add food coloring to each bag (I put 10-20 drops per bag).  For the secondary colors I followed the mixing instructions on the food coloring box for white icing.

Now add a splash of rubbing alcohol.

Shake it up!  Seal the bag and shake it until all the rice is covered.  Add more food coloring/alcohol if needed.

Let it sit.  I let mine sit for 2 hours.

Spread each color onto a cookie sheet to let it dry.  If you have multiple cookie sheets you can do them simultaneously otherwise just do one at a time.  Be sure to shake it up every once in a while to make sure it all gets dry.

Once it's dry it's ready to go.  You can mix them together or use separate colors.

This is great to use in I Spy jars or sensory bins.  If your child has great fine motor skills have them separate the colors into a muffin tin using tweezers.

Shapes

Sand Writing - Fill a small box with sand.  Practice drawing shapes with fingers.

Hot Glue Tracing - Draw shapes with hot glue.  Once it has cooled have child trace it with his/her finger.

Copier - Place 3-4 small items (like shaped erasers) in a line on a copier and print it in color.  Give the child the paper and they toys.  They can match the items to the pictures.

Line Drawing - Draw some shapes/lines.  Have your child use the shapes to make a picture.


Colors

Muffin Tin Sorting - You can use a muffin pan, egg carton, or any other sectioned container.  Paint the inside of the sections, place a piece of colored paper, or put a sticker in the bottom so the child can see which colors are supposed to go where.  Use any small objects (pompoms, jelly beans, beads, Fruit Loops, etc).

Collections - Collect items around the house or yard of a certain color.


Tuesday, April 24, 2012

Counting

Muffin Tins 
  - Place one item in each spot and count as you go.
  - Place numbers cards into each of the muffin spots.  Place the correct number of items (pompoms,  
    beads, etc) in each spot.

Bead Snakes - Thread beads onto pipe cleaners.  Count the beads.  You can also make patterns; count the total number of beads and the number of each color bead.

Piggy Bank - Count coins as you put them in the piggy bank (you could also cut a slit in the top of a container and use poker chips).

Numbers

These methods are for writing numbers and number comprehension.  For counting, patterns, etc. return to the Methods page and select the respective category.


Sand Writing - Fill a small box (approx 6"x4"2") with sand.  Print cards with numbers.  Have child draw the numbers in the sand.

Playdough Sheets - Print and laminate cards with numbers.  Have child roll playdough and place it on the card tracing the numbers.

Wet Noodles - Cook up some spaghetti and let your child explore.  Shape the noodles into numbers.

Hot Glue Tracing - Write numbers with hot glue.  Once the glue has cooled have the child trace it with his/her fingers. 

Toy Letters - Gather similarly colored toys.  Use the toys to make giant numbers on the floor.



Fill in the Missing Number - Make cards that have a missing number (1 2 3 _ 5) and have the child fill in the blanks.


Estimating - Once your child has a firm grasp on counting try estimating items (How many pickles in the jar?).  Have the child count the items to see how close he/she was.





Letters, Writing, Prewriting

Sand Writing - Fill a small box (approx 6"x4"2") with sand.  Print cards with shapes/letters.  For young toddlers have them copy a shape (straight line, zigzag, curvy line, etc).  When your child is ready move on to letters.

Playdough Sheets - Print and laminate cards with letters or words.  Have child roll playdough and place it on the card tracing the letters.

Wet Noodles - Cook up some spaghetti and let your child explore.  Shape the noodles into letters or shapes.

Hot Glue Tracing - Write letters/words with hot glue.  Once the glue has cooled have the child trace it with his/her fingers.

Toy Letters - Gather similarly colored toys.  Use the toys to make giant letters on the floor.

Bottle Cap Words - Collect plastic bottle caps.  Once you have gathered enough write a lowercase letter on each one (you'll want doubles/triples of some letters).  You can print cards with words (so child matches bottle cap to card) or just spell words with them.

MagnaDoodle - Practice writing letters and then easily erase them with a MagnaDoodle (or similar toy).

Letter Box - Give child a box of items that start with a certain letter.

Easter Sensory Bin

 I went to Walmart's easter section and there were a lot of $1 finds.  I really like erasers because you can find great shapes and they are a good size for sensory bins.  I also got the Easter grass (shredded paper) for less than $1.


My son absolutely loved this bin.  He was "hopping" the bunny erasers and was so proud of himself when he figured out how to make the plastic bunnies hop (they jump when you press on the back).  He was afraid of the wind-up duck at first but now he brings it to me to wind it up throughout the day.

Train Lunch


I cut out a sandwich with a train cookie-cutter.  I added Mini Oreos for the wheels, Veggie Sticks train tracks, and an orange sun.

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Merry, merry king of the bush is he.
Laugh, Kookaburra! Laugh, Kookaburra.
Gay your life must be.

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Eating all the gumdrops he can see.
Stop, Kookaburra!  Stop Kookaburra!
Leave some there for me.

Lyrics: Johnny Appleseed

The Lord is good to me,
And so I thank the Lord,
For giving me the things I need,
The sun and the rain and the apple seed.
Oh the Lord is good to me.

For every seed I sow,
An apple tree will go,
And soon there'll be apples there.
For everyone in the world to share,
The Lord is good to me,.

The people always shout,
"There goes John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!"

Lyrics: Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow,
In a one-horse open sleigh,
O'er the fields we go,
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob tails ring,
Making spirits bright.
What fun it is to laugh and sing,
A slaying song tonight!

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

A day or two ago, 
I thought I'd take a ride,
And soon Miss Fanny Bright,
Was seated by my side.
The horse was lean and lank; 
Misfortune seemed his lot.
We got into a drifted bank,
And then we got upsot.

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Lyrics: Jingle Bell Rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock.
Jingle bells swing and jingle bills ring.
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun,
Now the jingle hop has begun.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock,
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time.
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square,
In the frosty air.

What a bright time,
It's the right time,
To rock the night away.

Jingle bell time is a swell time,
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh.
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet,
Jingle around the clock.

Mix and mingle in the jingling feet.
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell rock.

Lyrics: Jesus Love the Little Children

Jesus love the little children,
All the children of the world.
Black and yellow, red and white;
They're all precious in His sight.
Jesus love the little children of the world.

Whether you're rich or whether you're poor,
It matters not to Him.
He remembers where you're going,
Not where you've been.


Jesus love the little children,
All the children of the world.
Black and yellow, red and white;
They're all precious in His sight.
Jesus love the little children of the world.

If your heart is troubled,
Don't worry, don't you fret.
He knows that you have heard His call,
And he won't forget.

Jesus love the little children,
All the children of the world.
Black and yellow, red and white;
They're all precious in His sight.
Jesus love the little children of the world.

All around the world tonight,
His children rest assured,
The He will watch and He will keep us 
Safe and secure.

Jesus love the little children,
All the children of the world.
Black and yellow, red and white;
They're all precious in His sight.
Jesus love the little children of the world.

Lyrics: Jack be Nimble

Jack be nimble,
Jack be quick,
Jack jump over the candlestick.

Lyrics: Jack and Jill

Jack and Jill went up a hill,
To fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.

Up got Jack, and home did trot,
As fast as he could caper.
He went to bed and bound his head
With vinegar and brown paper.

Lyrics: It's a Small World

It's a world of laughter, a world of tears,
It's a world of hopes, it's a world of fears,
There's so much that we share,
That it's time we're aware,
It's a small world after all.

It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all;
It's a small, small world.

There is just one moon and one golden sun,
And a smile means friendship to everyone.
Though the mountains divide,
And the oceans are wide,
It's a small, small world.


It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all;
It's a small, small world.

Lyrics: I've Been Working on the Railroad

I've been working on the railroad,
All the livelong day.
I've been working on the railroad,
Just to pass the time away.
Don't you hear the whistle blowing?
Rise up so early in the morn.
Don't you hear the captain shouting,
"Dinah, blow your horn?"

Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?
Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?

Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah.
Someone's in the kitchen, I know.
Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah,
Strumming on the old banjo.

Fee fi fiddle-i-o
Fee fi fiddle-i-o-o-o-o
Fee fi fiddle -i-o
Strumming on the old banjo.

Lyrics: 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, hear me shout,
Just tip me over and pour me out.

I'm a clever teapot, yes it's true.
Here's and example of what I can do:
I can change my handle to my spout,
Just tip me over and pour me out.

Lyrics: I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas.
Only a hippopotamus will do.
Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy,
I want a hippopotamus to play with an enjoy.

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas.
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue,
Just bring it through the front door, that's the easy thing to do.

I can see me now on Christmas morning,
Creeping down the stairs.
Oh what a joy and what a surprise when I open up my eyes,
To see a hippo hero standing there.

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,
Only a hippopotamus will do.
No crocodiles, no rinocerouseses.
I only like hippopotamuses,
And hippopotamuses like me too!

Mom says the hippo would eat me up,
But then my teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian.

There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage.
I'd feed him there and wash him there,

And give him his massage.
I can see me now on Christmas morning,
Creeping down the stairs.
Oh what a joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes,
To see a hippo hero standing there.

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,
Only a hippopotamus will do.
No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses.
I only like hippopotamuses,
And hippopotamuses like me too!

Lyrics: Hush Little Baby

Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
Papa's going to buy you a mockingbird.

And if that mocking bird won't sing,
Papa's going to buy you a diamond ring.

And if that diamond ring turns brass,
Papa's gong to buy you a looking glass.

And if that looking glass gets broke,
Papa's going to buy you a billy goat.

And if that billy goat won't pull,
Papa's going to buy you a cart and bull.

And if that cart and bull fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.

Lyrics: Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king's horses and all the king's men,
Couldn't put Humpty together again.

Lyrics: How Much is that Doggie in the Window?

How much is that doggie in the window? (arf, arf)
The one with the waggley tail?
How much is hat doggie in the window?  (arf, arf)
I do hope that doggie's for sale.

I must take a trip to California,
And leave my poor sweetheart alone.
If he has a dog, he won't be lonesome,
And the doggie will have a good home.

How much is that doggie in the window?  (arf, arf)
The one with the waggley tail?
How much is that doggie in the window?  (arf, arf)
I do hope that doggie's for sale.

I read in the paper there are robbers (woof, woof)
With flashlights that shine in the dark.
My love needs a doggie to protect him,
And scare them away with one bark.

I don't want a bunny or kitty;
I don't want  a parrot that talks.
I don't want a bowl of little fishies,
He can't take a goldfish for a walk.


How much is that doggie in the window?  (arf, arf)
The one with the waggley tail?
How much is that doggie in the window?  (arf, arf)
I do hope that doggie's for sale.
I do hope that doggie's for sale.


Lyrics: Hot Cross Buns

Hot cross buns,
Hot cross buns,
One a penny,
Two a penny,
Hot cross buns.

If you have no daughters,
Give them to your sons,
One a penny,
Two a penny,
Hot cross buns.

Lyrics: Home on the Range

Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer and the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard, a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

Home, home on the range,
Where the deer and the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard, a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

How often at night where the heavens are bright,
With the light of the glittering stars,
Have I stood there amazed and asked as I gazed,
If their glory exceeds that of ours.


Home, home on the range,
Where the deer and the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard, a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

Then give me a land where the bright diamond sand,
Flows leisurely down to the stream,
Where the graceful white swan goes gliding along,
Like a maid in a heavenly dream.

Oh I would not exchange my old home on the range,
Where the deer and the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard, a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

Lyrics: The Holly and the Ivy

The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown,
Of all the trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears the crown.
O the rising of the sun,
And the running of the deer,
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing of the choir.

The holly bears a blossom,
As white as lily flower;
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
To be our sweet Savior.
O the rising of the sun,
And the running of the deer.
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing of the choir.

The holly bears a berry,
As red as any blood;
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
To do poor sinners good.

O the rising of the sun,
And the running of the deer.
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing of the choir.

The holly bears a prickle,
As sharp as any thorn;
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
On Christmas Day in the morn.
O the rising of the sun,
And the running of the deer.
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing of the choir.

The holly bears a bark,
As biter as any gall;
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
For to redeem us all.
O the rising of the sun,
And the running of the deer.
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing of the choir.

The holly and the ivy,
Now both are full well grown,
Of all the trees that are in teh wood,
The holly bears the crown.
O the rising of the sun,
And the running of the deer.
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing of the choir.

Lyrics: The Hokey Pokey

Put your right hand in,
Put your right hand out,
Put your right hand in,
and shake it all about.
Do the hokey pokey
and turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!


Put your left hand in,
Put your left hand out,
Put your left hand in,
and shake it all about.
Do the hokey pokey
and turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

Put your right leg in,
Put your right leg out,
Put your right let in,
and shake it all about.
Do the hokey pokey
and turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

Put your left leg in,
Put your left leg out,
Put your left leg in,
and shake it all about.
Do the hokey pokey
and turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

Put your head in,
Put your head out,
Put your head in,
and shake it all about.
Do the hokey pokey
and turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

Put your whole self in,
Put your whole self out,
Put your whole self in,
and shake it all about.
Do the hokey pokey
and turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!
