February Songs and Fingerplays










HERE’S A LITTLE GROUNDHOG
sung to “I’m A Little Teapot”
I see a little groundhog, furry and brown; 
 He’s popping up to look around.
If he sees his shadow, down he’ll go.
Six more weeks of winter - oh, no!


Brush, Brush, Brush Your Teeth
Sung to: “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”
Brush, Brush, Brush Your Teeth,
‘til they’re shiny bright.
They’ll by healthy, they’ll be strong, 
if you treat them right.


Make a Heart
I put my hands together, this is how I start; 
I curve my fingers right around and I can make a Heart!
Note: Act out the song with your hands


Ten Little Valentines
(Sung To: ‘Ten Little Indians’)
One little, two little, three little valentines. 
Four little, five little, six little valentines. 
Seven little, eight little, nine little valentines. 
Ten Valentines in a row!


Five Little Valentines
5 little valentines waiting in the store
_________ (Child’s name) bought one, and then there were 4.
4 little valentines for you and for me
___________bought one, and then there were 3.
3 little valentines wondering what to do
__________bought one, and then there were 2.
2 little valentines thinking up some fun
_________bought one, and then there was one.
1 little valentine said, “Buy me and run!”
___________did that, and then there were none!


If You Love Me & You Know It
Sung to: “If you’re happy and you know it”
If you love me and you know it, Clap your hands.
If you love me and you know it, Clap your hands.
If you love me and you know it,
Then your face will surely show it.
If you love me and you know it, Clap your hands.
Other Verses:
Wink your eye
Blow a kiss
Give a hug
