In this video Chris Findlay demonstrates 4 children's rhymes for babies and toddlers.

Toast in a Toaster

I'm Toast in a toaster. (bounce)
I'm getting very hot.
Tick-tock, tick-tock, (rock)
Up I pop! (lift)

Busy, Busy, Lizzy,

Busy, busy, Lizzy, (bounce)
All in a tizzy,
Drank a soda POP, (lift)
And got all fizzy! (wiggle)

Up to the Heavens

Up to the heavens (swing baby up)
Down to the sea (swing baby down)
How many kisses from you to me? (give kisses)
Up to the heavens (swing baby up)
Down to the sea (Swing baby down)
How many fishes do you see? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5! (count fingers or toes)

Peas in a Pod

5 little peas in a pea pod pressed (hands together)
1 grew, 2 grew, so did all the rest (wiggle thumbs, then pointers, then all)
They grew and they grew and they did not stop (spread hands apart)
Until one day the pod went "POP!" (clap)
