Song: “Round and Round You Go” (Tune: “The Bear Went over the Mountain”)
Our toes are starting to wiggle, our toes are starting to wiggle,
our toes are starting to wiggle, around and round they go. (slow, then fast)

Rhyme: Away up high in the apple tree (lift baby)
I saw a little baby smiling at me

Down came the baby (bring down)
Mmm, was she good! (Kiss)
