Hop, jump and sing – the fun an action song can bring
What to do
- Think about action songs that you sing with your toddler.
- When you're singing, encourage your toddler to move as well as sing along with you.
- Here's a song to get you started that encourages lots of actions; you can either make up your own tune or search online and find a video to learn the tune from.
'Hop a Little, Jump a Little'
Hop a little, jump a little
One, two, three.
Run a little, skip a little
Tap one knee.
Bend a little, stretch a little,
Nod your head.
Yawn a little, sleep a little,
In your bed.
