Song Box
* Gather together soft toys that represent characters from songs that the children are familiar with.
* In the picture you can see characters that represent 'Incy Wincy Spider', 'Horsey, Horsey', 'Hickory, Dickory Dock', 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' and 'Miss Polly'.
* Place all the characters in a bright attractive box.
* Introduce them to the children, oneat a time, so that when a particular character is selected the children sing the relevant song.
* Write which song or rhyme each character represents on the underside of the box lid to avoid confusion when different adults are using the box.
