This old man loves to play music. Let’s join him with a fun song!
This old man, he played one, he played knick-knack on my thumb. With a knick-knack paddy whack, give a dog a bone, this old man came rolling home.
Finger Family Puppets: Create your own Finger Family puppets using paper and crayons. Draw and color each family member on a small piece of paper, then tape them to your fingers. Sing the Finger Family song and make your puppets dance along. Can you think of other family members or friends you can add to your Finger Family?
Penguin Jump Counting: Use small toys or blocks to represent penguins. Start with five penguins and act out the “Five Little Penguins” song. Each time a penguin “bumps its toe,” remove one and count how many are left. Can you count backward from five to one? Try using different numbers of penguins and see how the counting changes.
Doctor Role Play: Set up a pretend doctor’s office with dolls or stuffed animals as patients. Use a toy stethoscope, bandages, and a notepad to play doctor. Ask questions like, “What do you think the doctor will do to help the sick dolly?” or “How can we make our toys feel better?” Encourage children to think about how doctors help people and animals in real life.
