Se juega de dos en dos.
Se cuenta del uno al tres varias veces diciendo cada uno un número.
Primero se cambia el número 1 por una palmada. Quedando así: "clap, two, three"
Luego se sustituye el número 3 por agacharse y la palabra "banana", quedando así la secuencia: "clap, two, (agachandonos) banana"
Finalmente se sustituye el 2 por otro gesto.
En esta canción empezaremos con las manos detrás de la espalda e iremos mostrando los dedos a medida que se vayan nombrando en la canción.
Tommy Thumb, Tommy Thumb, where are you? Here I am, here I am, how do you do? (aquí sacamos el pulgar) Peter Pointer, Peter Pointer, where are you? Here I am, here I am, how do you do? (sacamos el índice) Toby Tall, Toby Tall, where are you? Here I am, here I am, how do you do? (sacamos el dedo corazón) Ruby Ring, Ruby Ring, where are you? Here I am, Here I am, how do you do? (sacamos el anular) Baby small, baby small, where are you? Here I am, Here I am, how do you do? (sacamos el meñique) Fingers all, fingers all, where are you? Here we are, here we are, how do you do? (sacamos las manos de la espalda)
Esta canción se puede jugar sentándonos imitando los asientos del autobús e imitando los movimientos de cada estrofa (hacer que tocamos el claxon, imitar el limpiaparabrisas...)
The wheels on the bus go round and round Round and round, round and round The wheels on the bus go round and round All day long
The wipers on the bus go "Swish, swish, swish, Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish" The wipers on the bus go "Swish, swish, swish" All day long
The horn on the bus goes "Beep, beep, beep Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep" The horn on the bus goes "Beep, beep, beep" All day long
The babies on the bus cry, "Wah, wah, wah! Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah!" The babies on the bus cry, "Wah, wah, wah!" All day long
The mummies on the bus say, "Shh, shh, shh, Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh" The mummies on the bus say, "Shh, shh, shh" All day long
También se le pueden añadir estrofas con otros sonidos por ejemplo:
Es una buena canción para aprender los números del 1 al 10 en inglés.Utilizando diferentes gestos en las estrofas.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, (contamos con los dedos)
Once I caught a fish alive (Hacemos como si cogiéramos al pez) 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, (contamos con el resto de dedos)_ then I let it go again (hacemos como si soltáramos el pez)
Why did you let it go? Because it bit my finger so (levantamos el dedo enseñándolo) Which finger did it bite? This little finger on my right.
