Wee Ones Easter Storytime Song Lyrics

Well Hello, Everybody, Can You Touch Your Toes?
Well, hello, everybody, can you touch your toes?
Touch your toes?
Touch your toes?
Well, hello, everybody, can you touch your toes?
Touch your toes?

Repeat with theses variations:
 - Well hello, everybody, can you touch your nose?
 - Well hello, everybody, can you pat your head?
 - Well hello, everybody, can you clap your hands?
 
A Bouncing We Will Go (to the tune of “The Farmer in the Dell”)

Spring Storytime Song Lyrics

Open, Shut Them
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Give a little clap, clap, clap
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Lay they in your lap, lap, lap
 
The Farmer Plants the Seeds (Tune: Farmer in the Dell)
The farmer plants the seeds (pretend to plant seeds in the ground)
The farmer plants the seeds
Hey ho, the derry-o
The farmer plants the seeds
 
Additional verses:
 - The rain begins to fall (wriggle fingers to represent falling rain)

Well Hello, Everybody, Can You Touch Your Toes?
Well, hello, everybody, can you touch your toes?
Touch your toes?
Touch your toes?
Well, hello, everybody, can you touch your toes?
Touch your toes?
 
Repeat with theses variations:
 - Well hello, everybody, can you touch your nose?
 - Well hello, everybody, can you pat your head?
 - Well hello, everybody, can you clap your hands?

Classic Children's Tales Storytime Song Lyrics

Open Shut Them
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Give a little clap, clap, clap
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Lay they in your lap, lap, lap
Creep them, crawl them
Creep them, crawl them
Right up to your chin
Open up your little mouth
But do not let them in!

If You’re Happy and You Know It
If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands (x2)
If you’re happy and you know it and you really want to show it
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
