Simple Flannels for Babies

​I have been on the lookout for simple flannel board rhymes to do with babies.  I posted about my first successful one in October 2017.  I make very simple, one-cut felt pieces, so I don’t have to worry about small pieces falling off and creating a choking hazard.  Here are a few more I’ve found that I have loved doing with the little ones.

Colors

(You can sing this to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star)

Orange and yellow, green and blue

These are colors just for you

Orange as a flower, green as a tree

Yellow as the sun and blue as the sea.

Orange and yellow, green and blue

These are colors just for you.

Over in the Meadow

Over in the meadow in the sand in the sun

Lived an old mother turtle and her little one

“Dig”, said the mother. “I dig”, said the one

So they dug all day in the sand in the sun.

Over in the meadow where the stream runs blue

Lived an old mother fish and her little fishies two

“Swim”, said the mother. “We swim”, said the two

So they swam all day where the stream runs blue

Over in the mead in an old hollow tree

Lived an old mother bird and her little birdies three

“Sing”, said the mother.  “We sing”, said the three

So they sang all day in the old hollow tree.

Five Little Babies

Five little babies were playing one day
One saw a ball, and he crawled away
Four little babies were playing one day
One saw a rattle, and she crawled away
Three little babies were playing one day
One saw a blanket, and he crawled away
Two little babies were playing one day
One saw a teddy, and she crawled away
One little baby was playing one day
He saw his friends, and he crawled away.

One Two Three

Bark like this all day.  Ruff! Ruff!

Can substitute kitties or just about any other animal!
