One, Two, Three, Four, Five: <\/span><\/strong><\/span>Knock Knock: <\/span><\/strong><\/span>Wiggles: <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

One, two, three, four, five (Count on fingers.)
\nOnce I caught a fish alive. (Wiggle hand like a fish.)
\nSix, seven, eight, nine, ten. (Count fingers on second hand.)
\nThen I let him go again. (Pretend to throw fish back.)
\nWhy did I let that fishy go?
\nBecause he bit my finger so! (Shake hand as though in pain.)
\nWhich finger did he bite?
\nThis little finger on the right! (Hold up little finger on right hand.)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

Knock, knock. (Knock on baby’s forehead.)
\nPeek in. (Open eyes wider.)
\nOpen the latch. (Push up the tip of the nose.)
\nAnd walk right in. (Walk fingers into mouth.)
\nHow do you do, Ms. Chin-chin-chin? (Wiggle chin.)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

I wiggle my fingers,
\nI wiggle my toes.
\nI wiggle my shoulders,
\nI wiggle my nose.
\nNow the wiggles are out of me.
\nSee how still I can be.<\/span><\/p>\n
