Songs

Tiny Tim (magnet board)
(tune: The Grand Old Duke of York)

I have a little froggy
His name is Tiny Tim
I put him in the bathtub
To see if he could swim
He drank up all the water
He gobbled up the soap
And when he tried to talk
He had a bubble in his throat.

Oh, bubble, bubble, bubble
Bubble, bubble, POP!
Bubble, bubble, bubble
Bubble, bubble, POP!

After teaching the song and going over it a few times we sang it through and then I blew bubbles for the kids while the parents sang the bubble part.

I Have a Little Frog
I have a little frog that goes jump, jump, jump
Jump, jump, jump! Jump, jump, jump!
I have a little frog that goes jump, jump, jump
All day long!
