Baby Rhyme Games

Rhyming games are something I definitely want to do yeah in the beginning your basically just a crazy person talking to yourself but as baby grows they can do the motions and even eventually sing the songs all by themselves so its like a grow and learn thing. Besides these are classics a kids not a kid until they have been taught Pat-a-cake.

Pat-A-Cake

        Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker's man, (clap your baby's hands)
        Bake me a cake as fast as you can; (repeat clapping)
        Roll it (roll baby's hands) and pat it; (pat baby's hands)
        Mark it with a B. (draw a B in the middle of baby's hand)
        Put it in the oven for baby and me. (gently poke baby in the tummy)

If You're Happy

        If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands. (clap baby's hands)
        If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands. (clap baby's hands)
        If you're happy and you know it, then your hands will surely show it.
        If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands. (clap baby's hands)

This Little Piggy

        This little piggy went to market, (wiggle the big toe)
        This little piggy stayed home, (wiggle the second toe)
        This little piggy had roast beef, (wiggle the third toe)
        This little piggy had none, (wiggle the fourth toe)
        And this little piggy cried, "Wee, wee, wee!" all the way home! (wiggle the baby toe)

Gobble Gobble

        Wee wiggle, (wiggle baby toe)
        Two tickle, (wiggle next toe)
        Three giggle, (wiggle next toe)
        Four sniggle, (wiggle next toe)
        Five-gobble! (pretend to gobble up your baby's foot)

Wheels on the Bus

         (Bicycle your baby's legs as you sing the first four lines.)
         The wheels on the bus go round and round,
         Round and round, round and round,
         The wheels on the bus go round and round,
         All through the town.
         The people on the bus go up and down. (lift your baby's arms up and down)
         The wipers on the bus go back and forth. (roll baby from side to side)
         The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep. (touch your baby's nose) 

these are just the ones that IMO every kid should know and I see no reson they chouldnt be done from day one except maybe wheels on the bus but for one of the most extensive lists Iv ever seen Check out..........................
some of these are awesome and totally going in my personal collection even if the other kids in school might never be that familiar with them.
