Baby 
Fingerplays & Rhymes

 

 

 

 

 

One baby turtle alone and new.
Finds a friend, and then there are two.


Two baby turtles crawl down to the sea.
They find another, and then there are three.


Three baby turtles crawl along the shore.
They find another, and then there are four.


Four baby turtles go for a dive.
Up swims another, and then there are five. 

 


 

Here’s a ball for baby big and soft and round

Here is baby’s hammer oh how he can pound

Here is baby’s music

Clapping, Clapping so

Here are baby’s soldiers

Lined up in a row

Here is baby’s trumpet

Toot- toot- too

Here’s the way

That baby plays at peek-a-book

Here a big umbrella to keep the baby dry

Here’s the baby’s cradle

Rock a bye baby bye

 

 

Five little babies were playing one day. 
One saw a ball, and so he crawled away. 
Four little babies were playing one day. 
One saw a rattle, and she crawled away. 
Three little babies were playing one day. 
One saw a kitty cat, and he crawled away. 
Two little babies were playing one day. 
One saw a teddy bear, and she crawled away. 
One little baby was playing by himself. 
He saw his mommy, and he crawled away. 

No more babies are playing today.

 

Little fingers, 
Little toes, 
Little mouth, 
Little nose. 
Little ears, 
With which to hear, 
Little baby, 
So precious and dear.
