Big Round Sun
Big round sun in the summer sky Hold arms in circle over head
Waved to a cloud that was passing by Wave!
The little cloud laughed as it started to rain Wiggle fingers downward for rain
And out came the big round sun again. Hold up arms in circle above head again

A House of Shapes

Rhymes and Fingerplays

Draw A Circle
Draw a circle, draw a circle
Round as can be
Draw a circle, draw a circle
Just like me.

Draw a rectangle, draw a rectangle
Shaped like a door
Draw a rectangle, draw a rectangle
Just like me.

Draw a triangle, draw a triangle
With corners three
Draw a triangle, draw a triangle
Just like me.
