29. The Eensey Weensey Spider
The eensey weensey spider went up the water spout. (Walk your fingers up.)
Down came the rain and washed the spider out. (Flutter your fingers down, simulating rain, and then sweep your hands out.)
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain. (Make a circle over your head with your arm, simulating the sun.)
Then the eensey weensey spider went up the spout again. (Walk your fingers up.)
Okay…put your fingers together.
Let’s do the Eensey Weensey Spider.
The eensey weensey spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain.
Then the eensey weensey spider went up the spout again.
A little faster now.
The eensey weensey spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain.
Then the eensey weensey spider went up the spout again.
Now let’s try it slow, with a low voice.
The big, big spider. (Do the same actions this time, but with BIG gestures. Put your hands far apart.)
The big, big spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain.
Then the big, big spider went up the spout again.

3. How's the Weather?
(Chorus)
How’s the weather?
How’s the weather?
How’s the weather today? [similar to the American Sign Language sign for “weather”, make a ‘W’ with your middle three fingers on each hand, point them towards each other, and twist back and forth]
Is it sunny? [make a big circle over your head with your arms]
Is it rainy? [move your hands down in front of you, simulating rain]
Is it cloudy? [“puff” two imaginary pillows above your head]
Is it snowy? [move your hands down in front of you in a slow, wavy motion]
How’s the weather today? [make the twisting Ws with your fingers]
Let’s look outside. [put your hand above your eyes and peer out of the window]
How’s the weather? [Twisting Ws with your fingers]
Is it sunny today? [make a big circle over your head with your arms]
Let’s look outside. [put your hand above your eyes and peer out of the window]
How’s the weather? [Twisting Ws with your fingers]
Is it rainy today? [move your hands down in front of you, simulating rain]
Let’s look outside. [put your hand above your eyes and peer out of the window]
How’s the weather? [Twisting Ws with your fingers]
Is it cloudy today? [“puff” two imaginary pillows above your head]
Let’s look outside. [put your hand above your eyes and peer out of the window]
Is it snowy today? [move your hands down in front of you in a slow, wavy motion]
