Nursery Rhyme Lyrics with Actions

Incey Wincey Spider Nursery Rhyme Lyrics
Incey wincey spider    (pretend your hand is a spider climbing up)
Climbed up the spout    (pretend your hand is a spider climbing up)
Down came the rain    (imitate rain by wiggling fingers on both hands)
And washed poor Incey out.
Out came the sun    (imitate the sun by drawing a circle with your hands)
And dried up all the rain
And Incey wincey spider    (pretend your hand is a spider climbing up)
Climbed up the spout again.    (pretend your hand is a spider climbing up)

The Wheels on the Bus Nursery Rhyme Lyrics
The wheels on the bus go round and round,    (gently move your baby's arms around in circles as though they are wheels)
Round and round, round and round.
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All day long.

The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep,     (gently move your baby's arms up and down as though tooting on a horn)
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep,
All day long.

The people on the bus go up and down,     (gently pick your baby up and then place back down in your lap)
Up and down, up and down.
The people on the bus go up and down
All day long.

The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish,    (gently pick your baby up and move from side to side like a wiper)
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish.
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish
All day long.

The baby on the bus goes bye, bye, bye,      (wave your baby's hand in a goodbye motion)
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye,
The baby on the bus goes bye, bye, bye,
All day long.

Three Blind Mice Nursery Rhyme Lyrics
Three blind mice, three blind mice,    (hold three fingers up briefly, then cover your eyes briefly)
See how they run, see how they run,    (run your fingers over your baby)
They all ran after the farmer's wife,

Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,    (clap your hands together on 'cut')
Did you ever see such a thing in your life,
As three blind mice?   (hold three fingers up briefly, then cover your eyes briefly)

I'm a Little Teapot Nursery Rhyme Lyrics
I'm a little teapot, short and stout
Here is my handle, here is my spout    (put one hand on hip, and then stick the other arm out in the shape of a spout - stay in this position)
When I get my steam up, hear me shout
Tip me up and pour me out!    (lean over as though the tea is being poured out)

Round and Round the Garden Nursery Rhyme Lyrics
Round and round the garden    (with your finger draw a circle on baby's tummy)
Like a teddy bear,
One step, two step,    (take two steps up your baby's body with your fingers)
Tickley under there.    (tickle under baby's arm)

This Little Piggy Nursery Rhyme Lyrics
This little piggy went to the market,    (lightly squeeze first toe on baby's foot)
This little piggy stayed at home,    (lightly squeeze second toe on baby's foot)
This little piggy had roast beef,    (lightly squeeze third toe on baby's foot)
This little piggy had none.    (lightly squeeze fourth toe on baby's foot)
And this little piggy went...     (lightly squeeze fifth toe on baby's foot)
"Wee wee wee" all the way home...    (run your fingers up baby and tickle under the arm)

Hickory Dickory Dock Rhyme Lyrics
Hickory, dickory,dock,
The mouse ran up the clock,    (run your fingers up your baby's body)
The clock struck one,    (lightly touch your baby's nose on 'one')
The mouse ran down,   (run your fingers down your baby's body)
Hickory, dickory, dock.

Lullaby Lyrics

Train Whistle Blowing Lullaby Lyrics
Train whistle blowin', makes a sleepy noise
Underneath their blankets go all the girls and boys
Rockin', rollin', ridin', out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

Driver at the engine, Fireman rings the bell
Sandman swings the lantern to show that all is well
Rockin', rollin', ridin', out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day
Somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles a-way
Rockin', rollin', ridin', out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way

All bound for Morningtown, many miles a-way.

Hush Little Baby Lullaby Lyrics
Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird won't sing,
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring turns brass,
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass

And if that looking glass gets broke,
Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat

And if that billy goat won't pull,
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull

And if that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.

Frere Jacques Lullaby Lyrics
Frere Jacques, Frere Jacques,
Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?
Sonnez les matines, sonnez les matines
Ding dang dong, ding dang dong.

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping?
Brother John, Brother John?
Morning bells are ringing, morning bells are ringing
Ding dang dong, ding dang dong.
