Yes you.
Ermmmm…(O.o)
Parenting.com sent me an email on “6 Classic Games Every Parent Should Know.”
These are the ones recommended for Maya’s age category.
Pat-a-Cake (2 months and up)
“This is easy for young babies to follow, and as yours starts trying to clap and play along, his coordination and motor skills will get a boost.”
This Little Piggy (2 months and up)
“Along with prediction and memory skills, your baby will learn about his body.”
Where Is Thumbkin? (4 months and up)
“Babies get a lesson in object permanence, prediction, and body parts. The melody helps young children follow the words.”
The question now, do I know any of these?
Pat-a-Cake - CHECK (thank god for my little cousin’s obsession with Barney & Friends)
This Little Piggy – Errr.. I’ve heard my mom singing it a lot to my younger cousins but I was never able to capture its lyric.
Where Is Thumbkin? – I DON’T KNOWWWWWWWW
I’m a horrible mother! *cries*
I googled baby nursery rhymes and I am shocked to find out that there are EXTREMELY a LOT that I don’t know. *eekkkk*
I got to get my groove on so I can put up a show for my Princess Star :)
This Little Piggy
This little piggy went to market,
This little piggy stayed home,
This little piggy had roast beef,
This little piggy had none,
And this little piggy cried,
"Wee, wee, wee."
All the way home.
