Guest Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 okay, i was being over ambitious when i thought of the toy topic, and now am stumped. I need a song or poem (but preferably song) to do with toys, so that i can add it to our parents information letter. Thanks Dawn
Guest Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 Miss Polly had a dolly. There's one about a Jack in the Box goes something like: My Jack in the box jumps up like this He makes me laugh as he waggles his head Then I gently press him down again Saying Jack in the box you must go to bed. This is done with appropriate actions.
Sue R Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 Well done, Suzanne! Must admit being stumped, why do our brains 'freeze'?? Sue
Guest Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 There's also the action song about a teddy bear. Teddy bear, teddy bear turn around Teddy bear, teddy bear touch the ground Teddy bear , teddy bear turn out the light Teddy bear. teddy bear say good night. I think I've missed a line or 2! (or more!)

Guest Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Hi Dawn how about this one? TOYS NIGHT OUT I've often heard a rumour I've often heard it said, that toys get up and move about while children are in bed. First of all they nod their heads and then they stretch and bend, slowly straightening up again, to shake hands with a friend. The soldiers go out marching, saluting one by one, while monkey keeps them all in time by banging on his drum. The dolls go to the kitchen to make a pot of tea Jumbo mixes up a cake to share with you and me. Teddy gets into a car and drives fast out of sight, while disco duck enjoys herself by dancing through the night. But all too soon it's over, the last star fades away. All the toys go back to sleep as children wake to play. Quite long but great (well I think so!) Jenny
