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.

Lap Song: “Bunny Hop” (Tune: “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”)
Hop, hop, hop along,
And bounce on someone’s knee.
Higher and higher and higher and higher,
Bunny-hop with me.
Fingerplay: “Here is the Beehive”
Here is the beehive,
But where are the bees?
Hidden away where nobody sees.
Soon they’ll come creeping out of the hive.
One! Two! Three! Four! Five!
BZZZZZZ!!!!! Back in the hive, bees!

Puppet Rhyme: “A Little Brown Rabbit Popped Out of the Ground”
A little brown rabbit popped out of the ground,
Wriggled his whiskers and looked around.
Another small rabbit who lived in the grass
Popped his head out and watched him pass.
Then both the small rabbits went hoppity hop,
Hoppity, hoppity, hop,
Till they came to a wall and had to stop.
Then both the small rabbits turned themselves round,
And hurried off home to their holes in the ground.

Fingerplay: “Round and Round the Garden”
Round and round the garden,
Like a teddy bear, (trace baby’s hand)
One step, two steps,
A tickle under there! (crawl up their arm and tickle armpit)
Lap Song: “A Bouncing We Will Go” (Tune: “The Farmer in the Dell”)
A bouncing we will go, a bouncing we will go,
High-ho the dairy oh, a bouncing we will go.
Repeat with rocking and tickling
