Little Bear
Little Bear in the tree
Sitting oh, so still.
Won't you come out?
Yes, he will!
He looks to the left
He looks to the right
He looks straight ahead
Then he pops out of sight!
There was a Little Duck
(tune: Wheels on the Bus)
There was a little duck that went quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack
There was a little duck that went quack, quack, quack
All day long!

Baby Hokey Pokey
You put your arms up
You put your arms down
You put your arms up and you wave them all around
You tickle, tickle, tickle
And wiggle, wiggle, wiggle
That's what it's all about!
You put your feet up...
You put your baby up...
Tiny Little Babies
(tune: Shortenin' Bread)
Tiny little babies love bouncin' bouncin'
Tiny little babies love bouncin', yeah
Tiny little babies love bouncin', bouncin'
Tiny little babies love bouncin' so
Bounce to the left, bounce to the right
Hug that baby nice and tight!

Toast
I am toast in the toaster
I'm getting very hot
Tick tock, tick, tock
Up I pop!
One Bright Scarf
One bright scarf waiting for the wind to blow

Wiggle it low
Shake it fast
Shake it slow
Hide it behind your back
Where did it go?
