Here is the Beehive

November 9, 2009 by ajpassey 2 Comments

Here is the Beehive

Tune: “Rock-a-bye Baby“

Here is the beehive
{hand in a fist}
Where are the bees?
{shrug shoulders}
Hidden inside
{point to fisted hand}
Where nobody sees
{shake head and wag finger in “no”}
Watch as the bees
Come out of the hive
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
{open fist one finger at a time till all 5 are showing}

Then tickle your child. This is a great one for all ages and helps build anticipation in the littlest ones.

      I have not seen an author credited with this poem. It is in the public domain.
