Song: “I Have a Little Heart”
I have a little heart, (place hand over heart)
And it goes thump, thump, thump. (pat chest three times)
It keeps right on beating
When I jump, jump, jump. (jump three times)
I get a special feeling when I look at you. (point to child)
It makes me want to give you a hug or two. (hug yourself)

Song: “Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes”
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes,
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes,
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose,
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes.

Song: “The More We Get Together”
The more we get together,
Together, together,
The more we get together,
The happier we’ll be.

Cause your friends are my friends,
And my friends are your friends.
The more we get together,
The happier we’ll be.

Oh, the more we get together,
Together, together,
The more we get together,
The happier we’ll be.

Song: “If You’re Happy and You Know It”

Book: Say Hello! by Linda Davick

Song: “You’ll Sing a Song and I’ll Sing a Song”
You’ll sing a song and I’ll sing a song,
Then we’ll sing a song together.
You’ll sing a song and I’ll sing a song
In warm or wintry weather.

Repeat with: clap hands, stomp feet, dance

Song: “Icky Sticky Bubble Gum” – David Landau: Kids and Kitties
