Opening Song: “Hello Bubble”
Hello bubble, hello bubble,
Come and land, come and land,
Right in the middle, right in the middle,
Of my hand, of my hand.

Name Song: “Choo Choo”
Choo-choo-choo-choo, choo-choo-choo-choo (rub hands together)
Up the railroad track, (inch up baby’s arm)
Choo-choo-choo-choo, choo-choo-choo-choo
Then we’ll come right back. (inch down baby’s arm)
First we’ll go to (name)’s house, and then we’ll go to… (repeat for each child)
And then we’ll come right back.
