Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
Additional Words and Music: Hap Palmer

  Listen to this song.

This song is available on Hap Palmer's Early Childhood Classics.


See below for suggested activities.

Head and shoulders, baby
One, two, three
Head and shoulders, baby
One, two, three
Head and shoulders, baby
One, two, three
Spin, spin, spin around
And touch the ground

Knees and toes, baby
One, two, three
Knees and toes, baby
One, two, three
Knees and toes, baby
One, two, three
Spin, spin, spin around
And touch the ground

Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
Eyes, and ears and mouth and nose
Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes
    Repeat Refrain

Actions:  
Touch each body part as it is named.  Clap your hands three times when you hear the numbers "one, two, three."   

Variation:  
What other parts of your body could you touch?  What is another motion you could do for three counts?  Make up your own verses to this song.  For example:
        Wrists and ankles, baby,  jump, jump, jump
        Wrists and ankles, baby,  jump, jump, jump
        Wrists and ankles, baby,  jump, jump, jump
        Swing, swing, swing your arms then stop and freeze
With the instrumental version, sing this song using your ideas.
