Jot it down in your diary: June 30th @ the Museum


One, two, three, four, five, once i caught a fish alive!

This week's post is dedicated to fishes as Lisbon is aloft on a cloud of sardines grilling!

First a rhyme:

Little fishes in a brook,
Father caught them on a hook,
Mother fried them in a pan,
Johnie eats them like a man!

and a song:


One 1, two 2, three 3, four 4, five 5,

Once I caught  a fish  alive.

Six 6, seven 7, eight 8, nine 9, ten 10,

But I let it  go again.

Why did I let it  go?

Because it bit  my finger  so.

Which finger  did it bite? 

The little one upon the right.

Oh Mister Sun, Sun,

To please come out
So we can play with you

Oh Mister Sun, Sun,

A Squash and a squeeze


Visual Lullaby


Curious George

Miss Polly had a dolly


Miss Polly had a dolly 
Who was sick, sick, sick, 
So she called for the doctor 
To come quick, quick, quick; 
The doctor came 
With his bag and his hat, 
And he knocked at the door 
With a rat-a-tat-tat. 

He looked at the dolly 
And he shook his head, 
And he said "Miss Polly, 
Put her straight to bed." 
He wrote on a paper 
For a pill, pill, pill, 
"I'll be back in the morning 
If she's still ill."

Itsy bitsy spider

Itsy bitsy spider
went up the water spout
Down came the rain
and washed the spider out.

Up came the sun
and dried up all the rain
and the itsy bitsy spider
went up the spout again.

...

Vem Dona Aranha
subiu pela parede
logo veio a chuva
e a derrubou

Já passou a chuva
o sol já vai surgindo
e a Dona Aranha
a parede vai subindo.


ABC Song


Don't let the pidgeon drive the bus!


Hey Diddle Diddle



Hey, diddle, diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon;
The little dog laughed
To see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.
