W is for Wash--dirty to clean!

Wash...clothes, dishes, the house, pigs, us!  It's fun to wash--though probably more fun to get dirty!

Five Little Piggies

Five little piggies rolled in the mud.
Oh, my goodness! They need a scrub!
The farmer took one piggy out
"Oink, oink, oink!" the pig did shout!

Continue down to zero

No little piggies rolled in the mud
They look so nice after their scrub
The farmer turned his back...and then
Those piggies rolled in the mud again!


Wiggle Your Toes
(sung to: Row, row, row your boat)

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle your toes
Wiggle them up and down
Wiggle them every which way
As you turn around.

Additional verses:
Wave your arms
Stomp your feet
Clap your hands

Rub-a-dub-dub

Rub-a-dub-dub
Three men in a tub
And who do you think they be?
The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker
And all of them going to sea!
