Children love songs with movement. Singing with your child will help to build on their developing language skills. When you are singing songs, be physically close with your child. This closeness will build trust and attachment between the two of you and will likely make the whole experience more enjoyable too. Children often want to hear the same song over and over. This is normal. Repetitive experiences help with their learning and help your child’s brain to build upon existing knowledge. Your own personal and enjoyment of singing the same song over and over might go away but try to remember that there is a lot happening with your child’s development and that these types of activities really have positive effects on them. Check out HighScope’s Tips for Singing with Your Baby or Toddler.

Story Time (to the tune of “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”)
Hands go up and hands go down (while standing put your hands up, then down)
I can turn myself around (turn your body around)
I can stand up with one shoe (balance while standing on one leg)
I can listen so can you (put your hands behind your ears)
It’s time to sit, I’ll show you how (sit down with your legs crossed)
Story time is starting now (introduce the book you’re about to read)

The Martian Song (This song can be sung in a repeat-after-me style, or all together)
Once I met a Martian (point one finger while singing the verse)
Who comes from Mars (use both arms to point towards the sky)
He ate all my M&Ms (shaking salt and pepper gesture)
And my chocolate bars (eating a sandwich gesture)

He banged on my tambourine (banging a drum gesture)
And played on my kazoo (blowing a trumpet gesture)
And then he showed me somethin’ (point at your child)
 
He did the hula-hu (hula-hooping gesture)
A hula, hula, hula, hu (hula-hooping gesture)
ka tang, ka tang, ka tang (make up something silly)

A glippity, gloppity, glippity, gloo (make up something silly)

A hula, hula, hu (hula-hooping gesture)

So if you meet a Martian (point one finger while singing the verse)
Who comes from Mars (use both arms to point towards the sky)
Let him eat your M&Ms (shaking salt and pepper gesture)
And my chocolate bars (eating a sandwich gesture)
