My ds has finally started to speak, Yeah or Argh depending on mood etc!!(Wink)
He loves to sing and has spent all day wandering around singing what I can make out is Ring o' roses. I can remember that but then he starts on a second verse which I have absolutely no clue about the words!! I vaguely remember something about fishes but he starts with cows!!
Is there a second verse? He keeps looking at me to join in but I don't have a clue!
Help me before we both go mad!Grin

we used to sing "ring a ring of rosies a pocket full of posies, atishoo atishoo we all fall down.
Down at the bottom of the deep blue sea, (crouching down on the floor) catching fishes for my tea, with a one, a two a threeeeeee! (jump up)
I'm not sure this is right, and I think it will vary from region to region.

So I'm not mad. I remembered the fishes part but he just looks at me like I've grown another head!!

To fetch a pail of water
Atishoo etc

The boys and girls are singing
The wedding bells are ringing
