"Opposites"
We can do opposites, we can do opposites
We can do opposites, follow me!
High and low...
Front and back...
Wide and narrow...
Tall and short...

In and out...

Happy and sad...

Open and shut...

Left and right...

Up and down...

Fast and slow...

Loud and soft...

Big and small...

We can do opposites, we can do opposites

We can do opposites, follow me!

If you mix these two you see,

a new color magically

If you mix bue and yellow you make

GREEN.

"10 in the Bed" (Numbers - use with rhythm sticks)

There were 10 in the bed and the little one said
Roll, over, roll, over
So they all rolled over and one fell out
And they gave a little scream, and they gave a little shout!
Please remember to tie a knot in your pajamas
Single beds are only made for 9 (tap sticks nine times)

Continue until...
Single beds are only made for 1 (tap sticks one time)

There was one in the bed and the little one said
I got the whole mattress to myself
I got the whole mattress to myself
I got the whole mattress to myself
I got the mattress to myself!
