Reference:
HappyHandz, Hygiene and Kids

This is a catchy fingerplay counting song about caterpillars falling asleep and then waking up into a beautiful butterfly. This song can be used for toddlers and preschoolers during group time. 

I have ten little fingers, 
And they all belong to me. 
I can make them do things,
Do you want to see? 

I can close them uptight,
I can open them wide.
I can put them together
I can make them hide. 

I can make them fly high, 
I can make them go low. 
I can fold them like this and hold them just so.

Hints and Tips:

  • Do the actions for each line. 




 


 

 

I love you
You love me
We're a happy family
With a great big hug
And a kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too

I love you
You love me
We're best friends like friends should be
With a great big hug
And a kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too

Hints and Tips: 

  • Include in group time with children to promote a sense of belonging 

 

Skidamarink a dink a dink,
Skidamarink a doo,
I love you.
Skidamarink a dink a dink,
Skidamarink a doo,
I love you.

I love you in the morning
And in the afternoon,
I love you in the evening
And underneath the moon;
Oh, Skidamarink a dink a dink,
Skidamarink a doo,
I love you!

Went to bed again.
