Guest Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 On the old forum at Under 5's there was a chat about singing sacks and singing cubes, which i can only vaguely remember. Can anyone give me more ideas for things to put in the sacks for each rhyme- because i can't remember i.e. red bus foir wheels on bus, teapot for i'm a little teapot etc. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marion Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 The story sack site has a number of sacks for well known songs (expensive but will give ideas what ti include in your own) There is old macdonald, do your ears hang love, there was an old woman who swallowed a fly etc http://www.storysack.com/index_files/page404.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Thanks for the ideas, I have a large cloth hanger with 12 pockets which I was racking my brains what to use it for, now I know. Pocket poems ( and songs) Our children love 2 little dicky birds, which would be easy to make too Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Hi Rosetta, Hand made I'm afraid, so you'll have to get the old sewing machine out or......... many £1 shops do pocket hangers ( used for shoes) which could be used. Some are material and others are plastic, see-through pockets. Happy hunting. Marion, Thanks for the links (again ) Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 We have a songs and rhymes box. We put props for familiar songs and rhymes in the box, such as a bus, a spider, a fish etc. (all self explanatory). The box has a lid with a hole cut in the top. Either a member of staff or a child puts their hand in and chooses a prop and the children have to think of a song or rhyme. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
