ALL WASHED UP

Talk and sing while bathing your infant in a sink or plastic molded tub. Sing about the parts of the body you’re washing. The following can be sung to “London Bridge Is Falling Down.”

Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes

Head and shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes, knees and toes.

Head and shoulders, knees and toes,

Eyes and ears and mouth and nose.

Sing this to the tune of “Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush.”

This Is the Way We Wash Our Face

This is the way we wash our face,

Wash our face, wash our face.

This is the way we wash our face

On a (day of the week) (morning or evening).

Other verses to include in your bath time routine are:

• clean our toes,

• wash our arms,

• scrub our feet,

—this list is endless.

These songs go well beyond infancy and will take on many variations as your baby learns the parts of the body.
