Scarf Song: “Wishy Washy Washerwoman”
Way down in the valley where nobody goes,
There’s a wishy washy washerwoman washing her clothes.
She goes, “Oooh! Ahhh! Oooh! Ahhh! Oooh! Ahhh!”
And that’s the way she washes her clothes.

Additional verses:
Drying her clothes (blowing on the scarves)
Folding her clothes
Wearing her clothes

Scarf Rhyme: “I’m Toast in the Toaster”
I’m toast in the toaster, (crumple scarf in hands)
And I’m getting very hot.
Tick, tock, tick, tock, (shake hands side to side)
Up I POP! (toss scarf in the air)
