Extreme Nursery Rhymes


We go to the library story hour on Mondays. The kids love it. The librarian reads several books and plays finger games with the kids, sings songs, nursery rhymes and all such fun things. I love it, too. I get to socialize with (non-virtual) adults, make new friends... it's great. Each time you come you sign in and every few weeks each child gets a book to take home.

The boys love singing the songs that they learned and saying the poems at home, too.

In the past few weeks, we learned:
"Where is Thumbkin? Where is Thumbkin?
Here I am, here I am..."

"Five little monkeys jumping on the bed.
One fell off and bumped his head..."

and another one that I never heard before that starts:
"Five little pumpkins sitting on the gate..."

Well, yesterday Gedalya was playing and singing to himself,
"Five little Thumbkins jumping on the gate!"
Haha!


I really must copyright some of these gems. Gedalya might just have composed a radical new nursery rhyme!
