We bounce and sing hello…

Lap Bounce: Alice the Camel
Alice the camel has three humps.
Alice the camel has three humps.
Alice the camel has three humps.
So go, Alice, go!
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Alice the camel has two humps.
Alice the camel has two humps.
Alice the camel has two humps.
So go, Alice, go!
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Alice the camel has one hump.
Alice the camel has one hump.
Alice the camel has one hump.
So go, Alice, go!
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Alice the camel has no humps.
Alice the camel has no humps.
Alice the camel has no humps.
‘Cause Alice is a horse, of course!
Book: Skyscraper by Jorey Hurley
Song: Brick by Brick
Brick by brick
By brick by brick
My building’s so high
It’s scraping the sky
Brick by brick
by brick by brick
My Building will sway
When the wind blows this way
Brick by brick
by brick by brick
I take the elevator down
To explore the town
Diaper Rhyme: Splash Fall the Rain drops
Splash! Fall the raindrops,
To the ground they go,
We need the raindrops,
To help the flowers grow.
Shaker Song: She’ll Be Driving a Bulldozer
Tune: “She’ll be Coming ‘Round the Mountain”
She’ll be driving a bulldozer
When she comes.
Push it back! (Hold hands palm out and move them away from body.)
She’ll be driving a bulldozer
When she comes.
Push it back! (Hold hands palm out and move them away from body.)
She’ll be driving a bulldozer,
She’ll be driving a bulldozer,
She’ll be driving a bulldozer,
When she comes.
Push it back! (Hold hands palm out and move them away from body.)
She’ll be riding a big digger when she comes.
Scoop it up! (Make a scooping motion with hands.)
She’ll be riding a big digger when she comes.
Scoop it up! (Make a scooping motion with hands.)
She’ll be riding a big digger,
She’ll be riding a big digger,
She’ll be riding a big digger,
When she comes
Other verses:
She’ll be on a cement mixer… Shake it up! (Shake your body.)
She’ll be steering a steamroller… Roll it flat! (Twirl arms around each other.)
Goodbye song: We Wave and Sing Goodbye
We wave and sing goodbye,
we wave and sing goodbye,

we wave and sing goodbye
We bounce and sing goodbye…
