Finger plays -

Hands on Hips

Hands on your hips.  Hands on your knees

Now put them behind you if you please!

Then on your shoulders.  Then on your nose

Touch your eyes, then touch your toes.

Hold your hands high up in the air.

Then down at your sides.  Now touch your hair.

Hold your hands high up as before.  Now you may clap.

One, two, three, four!

The Two Feet Game

(hold hands and recite and act out this rhyme)

I can walk with two feet, two feet, two feet

I can walk with two feet, two feet, all day long.

I can jump with two feet....

I can hop with two feet.....

I can run with two feet.....

I can march with two feet......

I can slide with two feet......

I can skip with two feet.....

(Can also be used with other parts of the body

I can blink with two eyes...

I can wave with one hand....

I can giggle ten fingers....)

Five Penguins

One royal penguin, feeling very blue, called for his brother then there were two.

Two royal penguins swimming in the sea, called for their sister, then there were three.

Three royal penguins waddle on the shore, called for their mother, then there were four.

Four royal penguins learning how to dive, called for their father, then there were five.
