This n That for the Tiny Set

Here are some rhymes we share at our 
Mother Goose on the Loose Storytimes

"Old Mother Goose"
Old Mother Goose
When she wanted to wander
Would fly through the air on a very fine gander

"Two Little Dickey Birds"
Two little dickey birds
Sitting on a cloud
One named Soft
The other named Loud
Fly away Soft
Fly away Loud
Come back Soft
Come back Loud

"Goosey Goosey Gander"
Goosey, Goosey, Gander
Wither shall I wander
Upstairs
Downstairs
And in my lady's chamber

"Two Little Eyes"
Two little eyes to look around
Two little ears to hear each sound
One little nose to smell what's sweet
One little mouth that likes to eat

"Rickety Rickety Rocking Horse"
Rickety, rickety rocking horse
Over the fields we go
Rickety, rickety rocking horse
Giddy up, Giddy up
Whoa! Whoa!

"Fe Fi Fo Fum"
Fe fi fo fum
See my fingers
See my thumbs
Fe fi fo fum
Goodbye fingers
Goodbye thumbs

"Handy Spandy"
Handy spandy
Sugar and candy
We all jump in
Handy spandy
Sugar and candy
We all jump out
Handy spandy 
Sugar and candy
We all jump up
Handy spandy
Sugar and candy
We all sit down

"Hands on Shoulders"
Hands on shoulders
Hands on knees
Hands behind you if you please
Now on shoulders
Now on nose
Now on chin
Now on toes
Hands up high in the air
Down at your side
Now touch your hair
Hands up high as before
Now clap your hands
One, two,three, four
