GREETING
The More We Get Together
Together, together
The more we get together
The happier we’ll be.
For your friends are my friends
And my friends are your friends
The more we get together
The happier we’ll be.

FINGER PLAYS
Five Little Monkeys
Jumping on the bed.
One fell off—-ohhhhh boing!!
And bumped his head
Mama called the doctor
And the doctor said,
“No more monkeys
Jumping on the bed!”

Here’s A Baby Ready For A Nap
Lay her down in her Mommy’s lap.
Cover her up so she won’t peek
Rock her till she’s fast asleep.

ACTION SONGS
Oh, When You Clap Clap Clap Your Hands
The monkey clap, clap claps his hands,
Monkey see, monkey do,
Monkey does the same as you.

Early In the morning
See the little puffer bellies all in a row
See the engine driver pull the little handle.
Chug! Chug! Toot! Toot!
Off we go!

MOVEMENT EXPLORATION
Paige’s Train Runs So Fast
Can’t see nothin’ but the window glass.
Chelsea’s mule goes so slow,
There’ll always be another row to hoe.

See Me! Be Like Me! Come to Me!

SIMPLE SONGS
Bye-Lo, Baby-O,
Off to dreamland you must go.

Tick Tock Tick Tock Goes the Little Clock.
All day long it just goes tick tock.
Open wide the door of the little clock.
Cuckoo Cuckoo Cuckoo Cuckoo.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are.

Handy Spandy Riddle-Dee-Row,
Which will you have high or low?

Valentine, Valentine I love you!
Valentine, Valentine Red and Blue

Five Little Triangles Hanging In a Row
The first one said, “Play me slow.”
The second one said, “Play me fast.”
The third one said,
“Play me once and see how long I last.”
The fourth one said, “I’m like a chime.”
The fifth one said, “It’s music time!”

When the Train Comes Along
When the train comes along,
I will meet you at the station,
When the train comes along.
Too-toot, Too-toot!

SIMPLE CIRCLE GAME
London Bridge Is Falling Down
Falling down, falling down.
London Bridge is falling down,
My fair lady-o.

So they all rolled over and one fell out.
