Clothes Story Time – Baby

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.

Song: “Baby Put Your Pants On” (Tune: “Shortnin’ Bread”)
Baby put your pants on, pants on, pants on, (move baby’s legs)
Baby put your pants on, one, two, three. (gently poke baby’s belly)
Baby put your pants on, pants on, pants on,
Baby put your pants on, one, two, three.

Leg to the left, leg to the right, (move legs)
Wiggle and jiggle and pull them up tight.
Leg to the left, leg to the right,
Wiggle and jiggle and pull them up tight.

Baby put your pants on, one, two, three.
Baby put your pants on, pants on, pants on,
Baby put your pants on, one, two, three!
