CLASSIC SONGS and RHYMES
FOR YOUNG CHILDREN!

'Round and 'Round the Garden

'Round and 'round the garden
Like a Teddy Bear.
One step, two steps,
Tickle you under there!

Variation
'Round and 'round the garden
draw a circle in baby's palm
The little bunny goes.
Hippity hop, hippity hop,
walk up baby's arm
I'm gonna get your nose.
wiggle baby's nose

'Round About the Rosebush

'Round about the rosebush,
Three steps, four steps.
All the little boys and girls
Are sitting on the doorstep.

Round Ball, Round Ball

Round ball, round ball,
with one finger, draw a circle in baby's palm
Pull the chickies hair.
One slice, two slice,
with hand chopping motions, walk up baby's arm
Tickle 'em under there.
tickle under baby's arm

Variation
Round ballie, round ballie,
Pull the donkey's ear.
One slice, two slice,
Tickle them under here.

'Round and 'Round the Race Track

'Round and 'round the race track,
Get your tickets here.
One step, two steps,
Tickle under there!

I Have Five Pets

I have five pets that I'd like you to meet.
They all live down on Mulberry Street.
This is my chicken, the smallest of all.
start with the little finger and continue with each finger
He always comes running whenever I call.
This is my duckling, he says, "Quack, quack, quack,"
As he shakes the water from his back.
Here is my rabbit, he runs from his pen.
Then I must put him back again.
This is my kitten, her coat is black and white,
She loves to sleep on my pillow at night.
Here is my puppy who has lots of fun,
He chases the others and makes them run.
run up the child's arm and give a little tickle
