Need to widen my repertoire of songs/rhymes with hand gestures/tickling etc. -- 9-month-old DS can't get enough!!

And while we're on the subject, why can I never get the hand gestures for incy wincy right???

Just thought of another one:

This is Timothy Snail
(make a fist and stick out your thumb for head)
His house is on his back
One day two men came along
And put him in a sack
(put your hand behind his back)
Timothy wiggled and wriggled and squiggled
(wiggle hand!)
Out of a hole so small
(bring hand back in front)
But what became of him after that
I never heard tell at all
(make "snail" move away out of sight)

One from my Aunty - although I've made up the last line cos I can't remember it

swimming (breast stroke action)
swimming (ditto)
in the swimming pool (trace out oblong pool shape in air)

When days are hot (phew...)
When days are not (brrrr)

In the swimming pool (as above)

Breast stroke (mime stroke)
Side stroke (ditto)
Fancy crawl as well (ditto)

wouldn't you like to be in the swimming pool with me! {sure that's not right - but it's OK}

Anyone know the real last line???

Ds brought Twinkle Twinkle Chocolate Bar back from nursery as well, and also this additional verse to Row, Row:

Row, row, row your boat, gently down the river
If you see a polar bear, don't forget to shiver

How about:

Pat a cake, Pat a cake baker's man
Bake me a cake as fast as you can
Roll it and pat it and mark it with a B
And put it in the oven for baby and me.

We always substitute T for B and Toby for baby and DS loves thinking it's about him!
