I met my boyfriend at the candy store.

He bought me ice cream.

He bought me cakes.

He brought me home with a bellyache.

Momma, Momma,

I’m so sick,

Call the doctor,

Quick, quick, quick!

Doctor, doctor,

Will I die?

Count to five and you’ll be alive,

Answer 7

How about this one?

One el-e-phant went out walk-ing

Step by step on a piece of string,

He thought it such a wonderful thing,

That he called for another el-e-phant.

Two el-e-phants went out walk-ing

and so on until you get to five elpephants.

Five el-e-phants went out walk-ing

Step by step on a piece of string

And do know what happened??

They ALL FELL OOOOOOVER!!!

Or this one:

Gl-ump! Went the little green frog one day,

Gl-ump! Went the little gren frog,

Gl-ump! Went the little green frog one day,

Glump glump glump glump glump.

And we all know that frog's go,

La de da de da, la de da de da,

La de da de da,

And we all know that frog's go,

La de da de da,

They don't go Glump, Glump, Glump!!!

Hope these helped

Answer 8

im a nursery nurse too and know the feeling!

how about

I will build a little house with 2 chimneys tall,

a sloping roof and a garden wall.

2 big gates that open wide,

2 tiny little windows you can peep inside.

i will build a little table big enough for 2,

2 cosy armchairs, 1 for me and 1 for you.

so knock on the door and walk right in,

for my little house is shiny like a bright new pin.



And

leo the lion is the king of the jungle, and his jaws are opening wide,

if you see him roaring, its bound to be a warning that you better run away and hide,

you better run away and hide,

you better run away and hide.... ROAR!

(the last 2 times you say 'run away and hide', sing it quieter each time, hide your eyes the last time, then roar at them! it makes them jump but they seem to love it every time!!)

youll have to guess at the tunes, tho!

how about



Im taking home a baby bumble bee,

wont my mummy be so proud of me

im taking a home a baby bumble bee.... OUCH! He stung me!

Im squashing up a baby bumble bee etc... eugh! Yucky!

Im wiping off a baby bumble bee etc... Thats better my hands are all clean again!



Obviously there are actions to all these songs, which you can do, just do what the words are saying!

Hope this helps!

well it is an nursery rhyme hey diddle diddle

Answer 11

Here are a couple "counting down" songs that my kids have liked:

There were (pick a number) on the bed and the little one said:

"Roll over, roll over."

So they all rolled over and one fell out.

Count this down to 1 repeating each time and then...

There was 1 in the bed and the little said:

"Good night."

Another:

Five green and speckled frogs

Sat on a speckled log

Eating some most delicious bugs

YYYYUUUUMMMM YYYYUUUUMMMM

One jumped into the pool

Where it was nice and cool

Then there were Four green and speckled frogs

GGGGLLLLUUUUBBBB GGGGLLLLUUUUBBBB

Repeat on down to 1 and then

...

Then there were no green and speckled frogs.

The Itsy Bitsy spider went up the water spout, Down came the rain and washed the spider out, Out comes the sun and took away the rain, and the Itsy Bitsy spider went up the spout again...

Answer 13

A friend of mine's mom used to sing this to us when we were little. I just love it.

When the red red robin comes bob bob bobbin’ along, along

There’ll be no more sobbin’ when he keeps throbbin’ that old sweet song

Wake up, wake up you sleepyhead, get up, get up, get out of bed

Cheer up, cheer up, the sun is red, live, love, laugh and be happy

What if I’ve been blue, now I’m walking through fields of flowers

Rain may glisten but still I’ll listen for hours and hours

I’m just a kid again, doin’ what I did again, singin’ this song

When the red red robin comes bob bob bobbin’ along.
