Sing a Song
Pairs
Two things make a pair. (Hold up two fingers.)
And on me, I’ll show you where. (Point to self.)
I have two ears, and I have two eyes. (Point to ear and eyes.)
Both are important to make me wise!
I have two holes in my nose. (Point to nose.)
That lets me smell a beautiful rose. (Pretend to smell a rose.)
I have two hands that clap a beat. (Clap hands to underlined words.)
I have two feet that are really neat! (Jump when saying the word neat!)
Watch!
