Babytime with Scarves
Channel: Vancouver Island Regional Library
Date: 2021-05-04

Babies start learning from birth! Learn rhymes, tickles, songs and lap bounces that we can do with or without scarves. Bring any sort of scarf, facecloth or even dishtowel that you can use at home to play with your baby. See below for lyrics to the songs.

The Grand Old Duke of York
He had ten thousand men.
He marched them up to the top of the hill (lift baby up in the air)
And he marched them down again! (bring baby down to the floor)
And when they're up, they're up. (lift baby up in the air)
And when they're down, they're down. (bring baby down to the floor)
And when they're only half-way up, (hold baby waist high)
They're neither up nor down! (lift baby up in the air and bring baby down again)

Oh he marched them to the left.
And he marched them to the right.
Then he marched them round and round
And marched them out of sight.

Jack in the box
sits so still
Will he come out?
Yes, he will!

Rain is falling down. Splash!
Rain is falling down. Splash!
Pitter patter, pitter patter
Rain is falling down. Splash!

Sun is peeking out. Peek!
Sun is peeking out. Peek!
Peeking here, peeking there,
Sun is peeking out. Peek!
