Jonah and the Whale (song sung to the tune of the Battle Hymn)
Jonah didn’t listen when God told him to go…. x3
To go to Nineveh
We got into a boat and the boat began to sway …..x3
When he tried to disobey
He landed in the belly of a great big giant whale …..x3
And he began to pray
Then the great big giant whale spit Jonah out …..x3
In the land of Nineveh
Jesus Loves Me!
Jesus loves me
this I know
for the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to Him belong.
They are weak, but He is strong.
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so!
Jesus loves me!
Finger plays are great for finger strengthening, finger separation and for developing fine motor skills.
- Five Huge Dinosaurs
- Five huge dinosaurs, looking fierce and mean
The first one said, "I eat things that are green"
The second one said, "I hatched from an egg"
The third one said "I have big, strong legs"
The fourth one said "I can fly through the air"
The fifth one said "I give everyone a scare!"
THUMP THUMP came Tyrannosaurus Rex that day,
And the five huge dinosaurs all ran away!
- Great Big Dinosaurs
- Sung to: Oh My Darling Clementine
Great big dinosaurs, great big dinosaurs,
Lived so long ago
Some liked land and some liked water,
Some flew in the air.
Great big dinosaurs, great big dinosaurs,
Lived so long ago
Some had horns and some had spikes,
Some had wings like bats.
Great big dinosaurs, great big dinosaurs,
Lived so long ago
Some ate plants and some ate meat,
But now there are no more
