  Wee Willie Winkie

  Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,

  Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown,

  Tapping at the window and crying through the lock,

  Are all the children in their beds, it’s past eight o’clock?

  Pat -A-Cake

  Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker’s man,

  Bake me a cake as fast as you can;

  Pat it and prick it and mark it with ‘B’,

  And put it in the oven for Baby and me.

  This Little Piggy

  This little piggy went to market,

  This little piggy stayed at home,

  This little piggy had roast beef,

  This little piggy had none.

  And this little piggy cried

  ‘Wee wee wee,’ all the way home.

  Polly Put The Kettle On

  Polly put the kettle on,

  Polly put the kettle on,

  Polly put the kettle on,

  We’ll all have tea.

  Sukey take it off again,

  Sukey take it off again,

  Sukey take it off again,

  They’ve all gone away.

  There Was A Crooked Man

  There was a crooked man and he walked a crooked mile,

  He found a crooked sixpence upon a crooked stile;

  He bought a crooked cat, which caught a crooked mouse,

  And they all lived together in a little crooked house.

  Little Jack Horner

  Little Jack Horner

  Sat in the corner,

  Eating a Christmas pie;

  He put in his thumb

  And pulled out a plum,

  And said, ‘What a good boy am I!’

  Monday’s Child

  Monday’s child is fair of face,

  Tuesday’s child is full of grace,

  Wednesday’s child is full of woe,

  Thursday’s child has far to go,

  Friday’s child is loving and giving,

  Saturday’s child works hard for his living,

  And the child that is born on the

  Sabbath day Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.

  Doctor Foster

  Doctor Foster went to Gloucester

  In a shower of rain;

  He stepped in a puddle,

  Right up to his middle,

  And never went there again!
