Signing to 'Twinkle twinkle little star'

[LaCerbiatta]

Does anyone know where I can find the little choreography that gies with 'twinkle twinkle little star'? My dd has been learning it at nursery and gets really excited when she hears it, so I'd like to do it with her at home. But being foreigner I don't know how it goes...

I don't know how you can find it but I can go through it with you.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

For twinkle you open and shut your hand like a flash going off
For little you make a small sapce between you finger & thumb
For star you make small closed fist open up, finger splayed

How I wonder where you are

I - point to self
where - palms up and move arms away from you and look up to sky

Up above the world so high

Point up
World - start with arms over head and draw circle round yourself
Curved hand held over your head

Like a diamond in the sky

Diamond - make the shape of a diamond with your hands
sky - draw the line of the sky with both hands above your head

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

For twinkle you open and shut your hand like a flash going off
For little you make a small sapce between you finger & thumb

How I wonder where you are

I - point to self
where - palms up and move arms away from you and look up to sky

Thanks Thomcat! You're the star!

I saw this being signed on "Something Special" on the cbeebies channel last week (). The people doing it were wearing t-shirts with "Singing Hands" on.

Yes, but don't do a diamond for star... In sign language that means Vagina! (According to the sign a long course that I went to!)

Second that one Rarrie... I've got deaf parents and a sister and we all laughed when we read the Sign Sing book which has the diamond shape as diamond. Actually rather a crude sign for vagina too ... . I tend to piont at Mummy's sparkly diamond ring... bit of a cop out

I did my signing course then the next day my class did it the teacher i work with made THAT sign for diamond - ooh she really blushed when i told her why i had sniggered she still does it though!!!!

so how many have sat and sang and signed this like I have just done!!! lol

for diamond in makaton here - place hand with fingers pinched together and facing up on opposite hand ring finger and then open fingers and move hand away from ring finger - kinda like a sparkle iyswim...

However the disamond shape is the usual sign people generally do.

i - point to yourself

wonder point to temple
