action rhymes for babies

[jollygoose]

My dgs is just 9 weeks old and yesterday for first time lol at my singing of Miss Polly and acting out the actions, dd and I then realised we dont know any other action rhymes apart from wheels on the bus which is a bit boring so am hoping u more experiencedmums out there might come up with some for me

I can start you a list, but more imaginative minds than mine would have to explain the gestures.

We did
Wind the Bobbin Up
Big Red Bus (Ferrari)
Zoom Zoom Zoom (We're Going to the Moon)
and Heads Shoulders Knees and Toes, which I'm pretty sure you know.

OK here's a Youtube link, but I warn you it's a horrific arrangement.

Row, row, row your boat - our toddler group had a second verse for variety -

Bounce, bounce bounce your boat gently up the stream
If you see a crocodile, don't forget to scream

Oh, I'm on a roll now. What about:
Tommy Thumb (finger song)
This Is The Way the Lady Rides
Two Little Dicky Birds Sitting on a wall (more of a poem than a song)
