Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Does anyone know any good hedgehog songs and rhymes? I'm particularly looking for number/counting songs and rhymes!
Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Ooooooooh and me, I would love some Hedgehog songs as I teach in Hedgehog Class!
Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 The one i know is below (not sure of the tune though) Hilly Billy Hedgehog prickles and spikes these are the things a hedgehog likes ACTIONS (place hands together fingers touching, then slot your fingers between one another to look like a hedgehog, as you sing wiggle your fingers so it looks like a hedgehog's spikes) A bowl of milk (cup your hands like a bowl) and a slice of bread (slice one hand along the other) and a nice warm place to rest his head (hold hands to side of head like sleeping symbol) night night billy (wave) see you next spring, that's when your alarm clock rings (wave both hands shouting ting a ling a ling) Dawn
JacquieL Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 If you google hedgehog rhymes I think you will find a few. Please, please, please don't feed hedgehogs milk or bread, even if that is in a rhyme. I love these creatures and have had a few in my garden over the years. They love cat food and eat the slugs. http://www.thehedgehog.co.uk/diet.htm 1
Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 My mum has one that visits her garden every night and she leaves him a saucer of cat food.
Guest Posted October 6, 2012 Posted October 6, 2012 I found hedgehog number rhymes in a number sack on amazon that my class have really enjoyed, great for 'playing and exploring' and 'critical thinking'. 1 for adding, 1 for take away and also lots of measuring. I used it as stimulus for maths circle time inititally and then added it to number area, led to lots of problem solving. I now need another one! http://www.amazon.co...49503941&sr=8-1

I have lots of hoggies visiting my garden and its a myth that you give them milk......it can make them quite poorly.
