And one for her belly where the hot dog goes!

The wheels on the bus…
The horn on the bus…
The parents on the bus go tickle, tickle, tickle…
Babies on the bus go hee, hee, hee…

Rhyme: These are baby’s fingers, (touch child’s fingers)
These are baby’s toes, (touch child’s toes)
This is baby’s belly button, (touch child’s tummy)
Round and round it goes! (gently tickle child’s tummy)
