Sing a Song

Pairs

Two things make a pair.
(Hold up two fingers.)
And on me, I’ll show you where.
(Point to self.)
I have two ears, and I have two eyes.
(Point to ear and eyes.)
Both are important to make me wise!
I have two holes in my nose.
(Point to nose.)
That lets me smell a beautiful rose.
(Pretend to smell a rose.)
I have two hands that clap a beat.
(Clap hands to underlined words.)
I have two feet that are really neat!
(Jump when saying the word neat!)

Try This
