Moving creatively to music and doing actions to rhymes with Socky (sock puppet).
Playing together supports learning through relationships. Children learn best in caring environments where adults co-play with children. Sharing experiences builds social bonds and emotional regulation.
The Hokey Pokey song with Socky
“You put your one hand in, you put one hand out, you put your one hand in, and you shake it all about. You do the hokey-pokey, and you turn around. That's what it's all about CLAP! CLAP!”
“You put your one foot in, you put your one foot out, you put your one foot in, and you shake it all about. You do the hokey pokey, and you turn around. That's what it's all about CLAP! CLAP!”
“You put your Socky hand in, you put your Socky hand out, you put your Socky hand in, and you shake it all about. You do the hokey pokey, and you turn around. That's what it's all about. CLAP! CLAP!”
Socky makes a cake
Children and adults do the actions - “patter cake, patter cake, baker’s man, make me a cake as fast as you can, pat it and it and mark it with B and put it in the oven for baby and me.”
