Nursery Rhymes
We love saying and singing nursery songs and rhymes in all our Peapodbaby classes. So we’ve decided to add a new one every month. Not seeing your favourite or perhaps from a different country – do you have any songs or nursery rhyme you’d like to share from your own childhood? If so please send us an email mailto:enquiries@peapodbaby.scotwith the words and we can share it with all our Peapod mums and dads.
2017
January: Grand Old Duke of York
Oh the grand old Duke of York, he had ten thousand men
He marched them up to the top of the hill, and he marched them down again.
And when they were up they were up, and when they were down they were down
And when they were only half way up, they were neither up nor down.
February: Hot cross buns
Hot cross buns, Hot cross buns
One a penny, two a penny, hot cross buns
If you have no daughters then give them to your sons
One a penny, two a penny, hot cross buns
March: Hickory Dickory Doc
Hickory dickory doc, the mouse ran up the clock
The clock struck one, the mouse ran down
Hickory dickory doc
April: Five little peas
Five little peas in a peapod pressed, one grew two grew and so did all the rest
They grew and grew and did not stop, until one day, the pod went POP!
May: Little Miss Muffet
Little miss muffet sat on her tuffet, eating her curds and whey
Along came a spider, who sat down beside her
And frightened miss muffet away.
June:Ring a Roses
Ring a ring of roses, a pocket full of posies
a tissue, a tissue, we all fall down
The cows are in the meadow eating buttercups
A tissue, a tissue we all jump up
July:See Saw
See saw Margery daw Jonny will have a new master
he shall earn but a penny a day because he cant go any faster
August: Jelly on a plate
Jelly on a plate, jelly on a plate
wibble wobble, wibble wobble
jelly on a plate
September: There was a Little Girl
There was a little girl who had a little curl
right in the middle of her forehead
and when she was good, she was very very good
and when she was bad she was horrid.
October- jack be nimble
jack be nimble
jack be quick
jack jump over the candlestick
November- To market
to market to market to buy a fat pig
home again, Home again jiggety jig
December-Mary Mary
Mary Mary quite contrary how does your garden grow?
with silver bells and cockle shells and pretty maids all in a row.
