 Hello, my name is Lisa and I'm from the youth department at West Pam Memorial Library. Thank you for joining me today for our virtual baby time. We're first going to start out with an hello song that has a lot of body awareness in it. So as we're pointing to your child's body parts, feel free to tickle and touch as we go along. Are you ready? Let's first find our nose. Where's your nose? Well hello everybody, can you touch your nose? Touch your nose. Touch your nose. Well hello everybody, can you touch your nose? Touch your nose today. What else can we do? Can we touch our toes? Well hello everybody, can you touch your toes? Touch your toes. Touch your toes. Well hello everybody, can you touch your toes? Touch your toes today. What else can we do? Can we wiggle our ears? Well hello everybody, can you wiggle your ears? Wiggle your ears. Wiggle your ears. Well hello everybody, can you wiggle your ears? Wiggle your ears today. Let's do one more. Can we tickle our tummy? Well hello everybody, can you tickle your tummy? Tickle your tummy. Tickle your tummy. Well hello everybody, can you tickle your tummy? Tickle your tummy today. Perfect. Welcome to our baby time. We're going to do another body awareness. This one's going to be focused on our face. So I'm going to show it on my face, but feel free to do it on your child's. Are you ready? We're going to start it with our eyes, our nose, our cheek, and our chin. Eyes, nose, cheeky cheeky chin, eyes, nose, cheeky cheeky chin, eyes, nose, cheeky cheeky chin, cheeky cheeky chin, nose, eyes. So we're going to do that one more time and I'll show you on Benson. I'll do it one more together. Eyes, nose, cheeky cheeky chin, eyes, nose, cheeky cheeky chin, eyes, nose, cheeky cheeky chin, cheeky cheeky chin, nose, eyes. Good job. So we're going to do another tickle, and this one is really good at introducing the concepts of slow and fast. I'm going to do slowly, slowly goes the garden snail. So you can do this, tickle a couple of different ways. If baby's having tummy time, you can do it up their back. If they're lying on their back, you can also do it up their front, and you can also have them when they're sitting in your lap. Let's try it. Slowly, slowly, very slowly goes the garden snail. Slowly, slowly, very slowly up the garden trail. And now we have a fast mouse that goes quickly, quickly, very quickly goes the garden mouse, quickly, quickly, very quickly into the garden house. Let's try that one more time. Slowly, slowly, very slowly goes the garden snail. Slowly, slowly, very slowly up the garden trail. Very quickly, very quickly goes the garden mouse, quickly, quickly, very quickly into the garden house. Fantastic. So the next thing we're going to get into is we're going to do some bounces. So whenever you're bouncing with your child, you always want to make sure that you're bouncing to your child's comfort level, but also your own. If you don't feel like lifting them up, that's totally fine. You can modify it by lifting up their arms instead. So our first song we'll be doing does have a lift, so we can always lift the arms instead. But we're going to do Acabaca Soda Cracker. Acabaca Soda Cracker, Acabaca Boo. Acabaca Soda Cracker, up goes you. Acabaca Soda Cracker, Acabaca Boo. Acabaca Soda Cracker, I love you. Do a nice little tickle and hug at the end. Let's try again. Acabaca Soda Cracker, Acabaca Boo. Acabaca Soda Cracker, up goes you. Acabaca Soda Cracker, Acabaca Boo. Acabaca Soda Cracker, I love you. Our next bounce has a lot of rhythm in it. Bouncing is really good for children to feel the rhythm as they're also listening to their rhymes at the same time. So we're going to be doing Grandfather Clock. Are you ready? My grandfather's clock goes tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, stop. My kitchen clock goes tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, stop. My alarm clock goes tick, tick, tick, tick, tock, tick, tock. So the more you do this rhyme, the more your children will be able to anticipate the tickle that's coming at the end and they'll have a lot more fun when they're expecting it. Let's try it again. My grandfather's clock goes tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, stop. My kitchen clock goes tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, stop. But my alarm clock goes good job. So next we are going to be playing with some scarves. So if you don't have a fancy scarf like this at home, you can use just like a pashmina or if you have a clean dishcloth or a clean facecloth, you can also use that as well. Cloths are really good because you can wave them up in the air, you can throw them and they nicely float down. Or my favorite thing to do is peek-a-boo. So that's what we're going to do first. We're going to play a game of peek-a-boo with our kids. I'm going to put Benson down right here so you can see him. And we're going to play peek-a-boo. And there's a fun little rhyme that we can do together. So it goes peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo, I see you, I see you, I see your blood and nose, I see your tiny toes, peek-a-boo, I see you. Let's try that again. Ready? Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo, I see you, I see you, I see your blood and nose, I see your tiny toes, peek-a-boo, I see you. Good job. The next one we're going to do is really good for a bath time, which is practicing for a bath time. So we're going to pretend our scarf is our washcloth. And we're going to pretend to wash our face. Are you ready? This is the way we wash our face, wash our face, wash our face. This is the way we wash our face so early in the morning. What else should we wash, Benson? Can we wash our toes? This is the way we wash our toes, wash our toes, wash our toes. This is the way we wash our toes so early in the morning. What else can we wash? Can we wash our head? This is the way we wash our head, wash our head, wash our head. This is the way we wash our head so early in the morning. What else can we do? Can we wash our tummies? This is the way we wash our tummy, wash our tummy, wash our tummy. This is the way we wash our tummy so early in the morning. So as you can see, that song can go on forever and ever until you run out of body parts. So it's a really nice one when you're having bath time or just playing around at home. Okay, so now we are going to get into some dancing. So if you're feel comfortable, please stand up. I'm going to be staying seated so you can see me in the video, but we're going to do some dancing. So when we're dancing, these are really good for calming down baby or just to get some hiccups out or some burps. So we're going to start out with doing Baby Was Born In The Circle Of The Sun. Baby was born in the circle of the sun, circle of the sun on birthing day. Baby was born in the circle of the sun, circle of the sun on birthing day. Clouds in the north, clouds in the south, wind and rain in the east and the west. Clouds in the north, clouds in the south, wind and rain in the east and the west. Baby was born in the circle of the sun, circle of the sun on birthing day. Good job. So normally we do these types of rhymes at baby time and we do them as a march in the circle. What you can also do if you're at home, you can either walk around the house and bounce baby, but you can also take a look at yourself in the mirror and bounce in front of the mirror. Not only will baby get to look at their face, but they will also get to look at yours while you're singing and dancing together. The next one we're going to try is mama's little baby loves dancing. So of course you can always change the name to daddy's little baby, sister's little baby, auntie's little baby, or just use your name, Lisa's little baby. And it goes like this. Mama's little baby loves dancing, dancing. Mama's little baby likes to boogie down. Mama's little baby loves dancing, dancing. Mama's little baby likes to boogie down. Lean to the left, lean to the right. Hook that baby nice and tight. Lean to the left, lean to the right. Hook that baby nice and tight. Mama's little baby loves dancing, dancing. Mama's little baby likes to boogie down. Mama's little baby loves dancing, dancing. Mama's little baby loves to boogie down. Good job. Okay, we're almost at the end of our story time today. Thank you so much for joining me. I will do one last song with you, and it's going to be our goodbye song. And we will be singing the goodbye train. So you get to wave goodbye. If you're holding baby, you can bounce along with us. And then there's a nice little Chew Chew as we sing our song. Ready? Oh the goodbye train is leaving. See you soon. Chew Chew, oh the goodbye train is leaving. See you soon. Chew Chew, oh the goodbye train is leaving. Oh the goodbye train is leaving. all the goodbye train is leaving. See you soon. Thank you so much for joining me. Have a wonderful day. Goodbye.
