I have recently discovered that Zulu speaking babies love to sing english songs. I have already exhausted my knowledge of songs. I would love suggestions. (preferably action songs)
So far, I have sung:
The Princess Pat
The Banana Song
The Turtle Song
You Are My Sunshine
The Itsy Bitsy Spider
etc etc etc
Help if you can!
Siyabonga!
Do you know "There was a Great Big Moose"? That was a big hit with my kids when i taught preschool. Also, "Open, Shut Them" is a fun one. I'll see if I can find videos of them for you.
ReplyDeleteAnother one: Don't know what it is called but you sit the baby on your lap and say:
ReplyDelete"This is the way the lady rides, trot trot trot." (you bounce them up and down just a little bit when you say 'trot')
"This is the way the gentleman rides, gallop, gallop, gallop." (The bouncing goes a little higher and faster)
"This is the way the farmer rides, jig-get-ty, jug-get-ty, jig-get-ty, jug-get-ty, jig-get-ty, jug-get-ty, JIG!" (at that point you are bouncing them all around and then you let them 'fall' through your knees on the last 'JIG'
Its a fun and cute game to play. If this doesn't make sense I am happy to act it out on skype for you sometime soon!
