This song is available on Cathy Bollinger's "Singing Sounds."

      It's fun to engage children in this song by having them indicate when they recognize the /t/ sound. They can say the word loudly, raise their hands, hold up a card with "tT" written on it -- or acknowledge that they hear the "t" sound in any way you choose.

Tiny Tim is tapping again,
Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap
Tiny Tim is tapping again,
Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap

He’s tapping his toes
And everyone knows
His tapping may never end.
Tiny Tim is tapping again,
Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap

Tiny Tim is tooting his horn,
Toot toot toot toot toot toot toot
Tiny Tim is tooting his horn,
Toot toot toot toot toot toot toot

He’s tooting his horn,
I think he was born,
To toot his horn most every morn.
Tiny Tim is tooting his horn,
Toot toot toot toot toot toot toot

Tiny Tim is saying ta-ta.
Ta-ta ta-ta ta-ta.
Tiny Tim is saying ta-ta.
Ta-ta ta-ta ta-ta.

He’s been tapping his toes,
And tooting his horn
His tooting’s grown old,
And his toes are sore.

Tiny Tim is saying ta-ta
Ta-ta ta-ta ta-ta
Toot toot toot toot toot toot toot
Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap
