FingerPlay for Grandkids

I use to play this with Joshi, Linny, and Holly when they were small. I just ran into it in some lost files last week. Here it is:

This is our world (form big circle with arms like holding ball)
Our big, big world
And this is a mountain high (make mt.peek touching finger tips together, elbows apart, like inverted "V")
This is a tree (put one hand parallel to ground up high and other hand parallel down low)
A tall, tall tree
And these are the birds that fly
(lock thumbs together and flap fingers like wings)
This is our sun (form big circle with arms like holding ball)
The bright, bright sun
That shines and keeps us warm
(hug self like warm and cozy)
This is our world (form big circle with arms like holding ball)
Our big, big world
And God has made it all!
(point up)

Remember doing that?! :)

As I was reading this I was playing it in my head. I definitely remember it! :)

Cedric loved that when you did it for him last weekend! I remembered it too. It's such a weird feeling to see or hear something from my childhood that I haven't seen or heard for YEARS. I get that feeling a lot with our old kids books that we're now reading to Cedric. Some of those pictures are so familiar.
