Hello songs

Book 1: Some Bugs by Angela DiTerlizzi

Theme Song: The Insect Song

Sung to: “The Wheels on the Bus”

The firefly at night goes blink blink blink
Blink blink blink blink blink blink
The firefly at night goes blink blink blink
All around the town

The bees in the flowers go buzz buzz buzz….
The ants in the grass go march march march…
The crickets in the leaves go chirp chirp chirp…
The caterpillar in the field goes creep creep creep….

Hello songs

Book 1: Hooray for Hat by Brian Won

Theme Song:

How Are You Feeling?
(tune of Hickory Dickory Dock)

How are you feeling today?
Oh how are you feeling today?
I’m happy and glad, happy and glad,
That’s how I’m feeling today.

How are you feeling today?
Oh how are you feeling today?
I’m grumpy and cross, grumpy and cross,
That’s how I’m feeling today.

How are you feeling today?
Oh how are you feeling today?
I’m sleepy and tired, sleepy and tired,
That’s how I’m feeling today.

How are you feeling today?
Oh how are you feeling today?
I’m frightened and scared, frightened and scared
That’s how I’m feeling today.

How are you feeling today?
Oh how are you feeling today?
I’m happy and glad, happy and glad,
That’s how I’m feeling today.

Hello songs

Book 1: Brown Rabbit’s Shapes by Alan Baker

Theme Song: This was a combined theme song and activity. As we sang the song I held up felt shapes for the children to identify. We used four standard shapes and one squiggly crazy shape that we made up a name for!

Shape Song (to the tune of Do You Know the Muffin Man?

Do you know what shape this is?
What shape this is, what shape this is
Do you know what shape this is…
I’m holding in my hand???

Hello songs

Book 1: The Best Mouse Cookie by Laura Numeroff

Theme Songs: These songs were both pretty short so we did two, they are both lapsit songs.

Pizza, Pickle, Pumpernickel

Pizza, pickle, pumpernickel
My little baby deserves a tickle
One for her nose, one for his toes
One for the tummy where the cookie goes

Cookie in the Oven

I’m a cookie in the oven
And I’m getting very hot!
Tick, tock,
Tick, tock
Out I pop!
