My Body - Songs

My Hands

My hands upon my head I'll place,
Upon my shoulders, on my face,
At my waist and by my side,
Then behind me they will hide.
Then I'll raise them way up high,
And let my fingers fly, fly, fly,
Then clap, clap, clap them--
One - Two - Three!
Just see how quiet they can be.


Hinges

I'm all made of hinges, 'cause everything bends
From the top of my neck way down to my ends.
I'm hinges in front and I'm hinges in back;
But I have to be hinges or else I would crack!


If You're Happy

If you're happy and you know it clap you hands
If you're happy and you know it clap your hands
If you're happy and you know it then your face will surely show it
If you're happy and you know it clap your hands
If you're happy and you know it stomp your feet...
...tap your head
...jump up and down.
any action that is appropriate


This Is The Way

This is the way we wash our hands,
Wash our hands, wash our
hands.
This is the way we wash our hands
So early in the morning.

....Brush our teeth
...Comb our hair
...Give a hug etc.


Thumbkin

Where is Thumbkin?
Where is Thumbkin?
Here I am. Here I am.
How are you this morning?
Very well I thank you.
Run and play. Run and play.
Where is Pointer
...Tall Man

...Pinky

Put Your Finger in the Air

Put you finger in the air, in the air.
Put you finger in the air, in the air.
Put you finger in the air, and hod it up there,
Put you finger in the air, in the air.

Put you finger on your toe, on your toe.
Put you finger on your toe, on your toe.
Put you finger on your toe and leave it a day or so,
Put you finger on your toe, on your toe.

Put you finger on your tummy ... and think of something yummy.
Put you finger on your nose ... see if it grows.
Put you finger on your chin ... that's where the food slips in.
Put you finger on your knee ... and bend it just like me.
Put you finger on your ear ... leave it there a year.
Put you finger on your heart ... it's a great body part.

Put you finger on your finger, on your finger.
Put you finger on your finger, on your finger.
Put you finger on your finger, on your finger, on your finger,
Put you finger on your finger, on your finger.


Show Me If You Can
Sung to: "In and Out The Window"

Where is your finger?
Where is your finger?
Where is your finger?
Show me if you can.
Good, now where's your nose?
Now, where is your nose?
Now, where is your nose?
Show me if you can. (Use other body parts.)


Parts that Bend
Sung to: "B-I-N-G-O"

My arms have parts that bend and move
Every time I use them.
Shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand.
Shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand.
Shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand.
And this is how I move them!

My legs have parts that bend and move
Every time I use them.
Knee, ankle, heel and foot
Knee, ankle, heel and foot
Knee, ankle, heel and foot
And this is how I move them!

My trunk has parts that bend and move
Every time I use them.
Neck, back, waist and hips
Neck, back, waist and hips
Neck, back, waist and hips
And this is how I move them!

I'm made of parts that bend and move
Every time I use them.
Shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand..
Knee, ankle, heel and foot.
Neck, back, waist and hips
And this is how I move them!


Scrub A Dub-Dub Song
Sung to: "The Mulberry Bush"

This is the way we scrub our hands,
(Pretend to wash hands.)
Scrub our hands, scrub our hands.
This is the way we scrub our hands,
So early in the morning.
This is the way we scrub our faces,
(Pretend to wash face.)
Scrub our faces, scrub our faces.
This is the way we scrub our faces,
So early in the morning.
This is the way we scrub our elbows,
(Pretend to wash elbows.)
Scrub our elbows, scrub our elbows.
This is the way we scrub our elbows,
So early in the morning.
This is the way we scrub our stomachs,
(Pretend to wash stomachs.)
Scrub our stomachs, scrub our stomachs.
This is the way we scrub our stomachs,
So early in the morning.

My Body
Sung to: "Where is Thumbkin"

This is my body.
This is my body.
It's the only one I've got.
It's the only one I've got.
I'm going to take good care of it.
I'm going to take good care of it.
Yes I am. Yes I am.
