Eyes and ears and mouth and nose,
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes.

Rhyme: “Five Big Lemons”
Five big lemons sitting in the bowl. (hold up five fingers)

It bumped the table and hit my toe. (clap once, then touch toes)
How many lemons in the bowl? 1-2-3-4! (count lemons)

Shaker Eggs: “Shake Your Shakers” (Tune: “The Wheels on the Bus”)

Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake shake.
Shake your shakers, shake, shake, shake,

Shake your shakers low, low, low
Shake your shakers fast, fast, fast
Shake your shakers slow, slow, slow

Shaker Eggs: “Egg Shakers Up”
Egg shakers up.
Egg shakers down.
Egg shakers dancing
All around the town.
Shake them on your shoulders.
Shake them on your head.
Shake them on your knees,
And shake them right to bed!
