When you sing row row row your boat dd starts rocking forward and back like she is on a boat. She claps to When You are Happy and You Know It, although not always at the right time. Tonight I just about died when I sang the Eensy Weensy spider song and she made her little spider motion with her hands and did the sun with her arms. Grandma has been trying to teach her the motions for a while now and it was soooo cute to see her actually do it. What other songs do you sing that has motions that go with it?

Re: Songs with motions
We go to a mommy and me type of music class and all of the songs we sing there have motions to go with them so we do quite a lot lol.
When I sing "no more monkeys jumping on the bed" I do a bunch of exaggerated motions to it and DS loves it, especially when I let him jump on our bed
We do a ton of singing and dancing! DS's favorite at the moment is Wheels on the Bus. He also likes Ring Around the Rosie...that one cracks him up.
