Can someone help me out here with this handwashing verse? I just can't remember the words, perhaps someone else knows it?
There's something about the soap and then it goes something like …..squish squish squish, sliding over the back, diving like a dolphin (or seal, etc., as they put their hands in under the water).
Anyone? An alternative would be welcome (and one for brushing teeth would be a lifesaver too).
When you wake up in the morning about a quarter to (number) and you feel like (rhyming phrase), you brush your teeth!
Chee chee chee chee, chee chee chee chee!
You brush your teeth- Chee chee chee chee, chee chee chee chee!
When you say the chee chee part you pretend to brush the teeth motion-wise.
one/having a little fun
two/nothing else better to do
three/taking a little spree
four/doing it a little more
etc etc.
There was a melody that I specifically learned to this one, but hard to convey via board! But you could easily make up your own rhymes and melody! Just make it fun!
Does anyone know of any websites etc. for more verses like for handwork ? I googled but have only found ones you have to pay for. Also any books with verses would be wonderful !
thanks for the suggestions ... I'll have to keep digging... it was a really great one because the hand gestures were so appropriate. I'll post it if I come across it.
There is a book I haven't got my hands on - I can't recall the name now, but it has verses just like this. Someone will remember.
I *think* this came from Simplicity Parenting, the girls love looking out for the bubbles foaming and it actually makes them interested in washing thier hands!

Wow these are great. Would love any site recommendations for more songs like this for other things! Thanks.
