One, Two, Buckle My Shoe
This is a fun traditional nursery rhyme that works well with props (sticks, for example) or if you point to whatever the song refers to (a door, for instance).
|
One, two,
Buckle my shoe.
|
(Hold up one finger, then two.)
(Touch your foot's arch--where a shoe buckle would be.)
|
|
Three, four,
Shut the door.
|
(Hold up a third finger, then a fourth.)
(Mime shutting a door. [Or point to the room's door.])
|
|
Five, six,
Pick up sticks.
|
(Hold up five, then six fingers.)
(Mime rapidly picking up objects, alternating hands.. [Use real sticks if available.])
|
|
Seven, eight,
Lay them straight.
|
(Hold up seven, then eight fingers.)
(Mime laying the objects down, one after another. [Use real sticks if available.])
|
|
Nine, ten, . . .
Do it again!
|
(Hold up nine, then ten fingers. Pause for suspense. . . .)
(Shake all ten fingers. Yay! Clap.)
|
NOTE: If use the more traditional line, "a big, fat hen," have a hen puppet ready or be prepared to imitate a chicken. Otherwise, you'll leave your audience confused.
