Learning for Little Ones: Songs with Hand Motions!


I don't have much for you today. Tornado and I are sick. I have a cold-ish thing and he has a high fever... in fact, he's still sleeping. We gave him Tylenol this morning at 7... then back to sleep for him. It's practically time for him to have more Tylenol. It explains his poor appetite yesterday... and the whinny-ness.

Anyway... we started with a new song yesterday. If You're Happy and You Know It. It just took a few times of me singing it before he started joining in with hand motions and clapping. :) I think we'll start with other hand motion songs... great for developing some fine motor and gross motor skills. Other songs I'll be introducing this next week are Itsy Bitsy Spider, The Lord's Army,... any other ideas???

Okay, I will go first. :)

This has been so much fun - thanks for starting us on it. It has helped me focus and work on fun little projects and ideas each week.

Have a wonderful day.
