songs and activities for children

It depends on the age of the children, but here are some suggestions that should work. Songs: B-I-N-G-O, Jesus love is a-bubbling over (a favorite with my 2yr old niece because of the actions), Twinkle twinkle little star (with actions), the wheels on the bus (with actions/sounds) Activities: colouring, finger-painting, saying their favorite nursery rhymes, reading stories with a lot of "acting out" like in The Big Baby Bear book, there's a counting game rhyme that has actions to match, that was a hot favorite with my then-two year old niece but still a favorite now that she's a bit older. There's also the "Where Oh Where" rhyme. Of course, if you want to take them to the computer, you can find some fun games there, and if you stick to educational sites, and limit their pc time, it could be very useful. E.g. yesterday I visited pocoyo dot com for my 2yr old niece, and the site even has a playtime timer so you can set a limit as to how much time they spend playing there. That site also has a lot of printable, character-related activities that would be perfect for kids of any age. I hope you found this info useful.
