Hugs and Kisses

Tune: Mary had a little lamb
It’s nice to get a hug from you,
Hug from you, hug from you.
It’s nice to get a hug from you,
So, let’s give one right now.
It’s nice to get a kiss from you,
Kiss from you, kiss from you.
It’s nice to get a kiss from you,
So, let’s give one right now.
Hug Your Bear

Hug, hug, hug your bear
Squeeze him very tight
Hold him high
Help him fly
Then hug with all your might.

Up and Down

Up, up, up
in the sky like this
Down, down, down
for a great big kiss
Up like this,
Down for a kiss,
You’re a special baby
Yummy Hugs

You be the ice cream,
And I’ll be the freezer.
You be the lemon,
And I’ll be the squeezer.
You be the hot dog,
And I’ll be the bun.
You be the baby,
And we’ll have some fun!

Ending songs:
Elevator Song
https://klmpeace.wordpress.com/rhymes-for-baby-and-toddler-storytimes/#59
Tune: Do Your Ears Hang Low
Oh, the city is great and the city is grand
There are lots of tall buildings
On a little piece of land
We live way up on the fifty-seventh floor
And this is what we do
When we go out the door!
Take the elevator up, take the elevator down (3 x)
Then we turn around!
Peek a Boo
Where is Baby? …. Peekaboo
Where is Baby? …. Peekaboo
Peek-a-boo peek-a-boo I see you!
Peek-a-boo peek-a-boo I see you!
Peek-a-boo peek-a-boo

Peek-a-boo peek-a-boo
I see you!
Peek-a-boo!
Where is Baby? …. Peekaboo
Where is Baby? …. Peekaboo
Peek-a-boo peek-a-boo I love you!
Peek-a-boo peek-a-boo I love you!
Peek-a-boo peek-a-boo
