IncyWincy Spider

IncyWincy Spider, climbed up the water spout. Down came the rain and washed the spider out. Out came the sunshine and dried up all the rain. So IncyWincy Spider climbed up the spout again.

IncyWincy spider climbing up a tree. Down came the snow and made poor Incy freeze. Out came the sunshine and melted all the snow. So IncyWincy spider had another go.

Spooky Spider

I am a Spooky Spider and my name is Hairy Fred. I do press ups in the morning and I jog around my bed. (Make out of breath sounds/panting) when I wake up I always bang my head, (tap your head) because I live under (child’s name) bed.

Tiny Turtle

I have a little turtle and his name is Tiny Tim. I put him in the bathtub to see if he could swim. He drank up all the water. He ate up all the soap and now he is in bed with a bubble in his throat. Bubble, Bubble, Bubble! Bubble, Bubble, Bubble

BUBBLE, BUBBLE, POP (move your hands as if the bubble is growing and then slap them together on the word pop)

Away in the Manger

Away in the manger, no crib for his bed. The little baby Jesus laid down his sweet head. The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay. The little baby Jesus asleep on the hay. The cattle are lowing. The poor baby wakes, but little baby Jesus no crying he makes.

When Santa got stuck up the chimney

When Santa got stuck up the chimney. He began to shout. You girls and boys won’t get any toys if you don’t pull me out. My beard is black, there’s soot in my sack and my nose is tickly too. When Santa got stuck the chimney.

ACHOO, ACHOO, ACHOO.
