Nursery Rhyme

• Friends do lots of fun things

(Extend your hands with your palms facing upwards.)

• They love each other, talk to each other and sometimes they sing

(Show the heart, then the mouth; move your hands as if to lead a song.)

• Listen, help, learn and share

(Place the funnel-shaped hand around the ear; extend your hands, show your head; extend your hands and then join them on the side, palms facing upwards.)

• Doing these things together, that’s friendship

(Extend your hands; fold your arms to hug.)
