Movement

Boing! Boing! Squeak!

Boing! Boing! Squeak!
Boing! Boing! Squeak!
A bouncing mouse is in my house
He’s been here for a week.
He bounces in the kitchen, (lean to one side)
He bounces in the den, (lean to other side)
He bounces in the living room,
Look! There he goes again!
Boing! Boing! Squeak!
Boing! Boing! Squeak!
A bouncing mouse is in my house,
He’s been here for a week.

Parent Tip

Rhymes and poems are a great way to fill you child’s life with the rhythm and rhyme of language in a fun engaging, and silly way.  This rhyme lends itself nicely to bouncing along with the rhythm of the words.  Playing with words, rhythm and rhyme will help your child develop skills that will benefit them as they are learning to read.

Let’s do the rhyme one more time!  Feel free to bounce along with the mouse and the words!

Action Rhyme

Zoom, zoom, zoom, we’re going to the moon!
Zoom, zoom, zoom, we’ll be there very soon!
So, if you’d like to take a trip
Just climb aboard my rocket ship
Zoom, zoom, zoom, we’re going to the moon!
