FINGERPLAYS:
Little Bunny Foo Foo
Little Bunny Foo Foo hoppin' through the forest, Scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head. Down comes the good fairy, and she says "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you Scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head. I'll give you three chances, And if you don't stop I'll turn you into a goon."
Next morning - Little Bunny Foo Foo (repeat verse above two times, replacing 3 chances with 2 and then 1. Final verse goes: Down came the good fairy and she said: Little Bunny Foo Foo I don't want to see you Scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head. I gave you three chances and you didn't stop: Poof - you're a goon!
Fingerplay directions: Make bunny ears with index and middle fingers. Make scooping motion as words indicate. Clap one hand over closed fist for 'boppin' action. Flutter fingers down for good fairy. Shake index finger as fairy admonishes Rabbit Foo Foo. Hold up 3, 2, 1 fingers as fairy counts chances.
If You Wanna Be A Buddy
Tune: “If You’re Happy And You Know It”
If you want to be a buddy, clap your hands.
(Clap twice) If you want to be a buddy, clap your hands.
(Clap twice) A buddy is someone who,
Is always kind to you. If you want to be a buddy, clap your hands.
(Clap twice)
Let the kids make up other verses such as: spin around, give a hug, or shout “hooray!
