Rhymes and Fingerplays For Story Times

A List of Rhymes I Like to Use in Story Times


1) As Best as you Can by Ryan the Librarian

Pat your head, pat your head as softly as you can
Clap your hands, clap your hands as loudly you can
Whisper, whisper as as quietly as you can.
Tap your feet, tap your feet as nimbly as you can
Show a smile, show a smile as big as you can
Sit down, sit down as quickly as you can
Now please...
Listen, listen as best as you can.

The actions can all be changed.

Wiggle yourself, Wiggle yourself as flexibly as you can
Close your eyes, Close your eyes as tightly as you can
Pull your ears, pull your ears as wide as you can

2) Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes Lyrics
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
And eyes and ears and mouth and nose
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes

Now - head and shoulders is really easy!  Can you do it faster?
Again!
