Teddy Bear Game

by Tara
(Scotland)

How about a simple teddy bear game, you can play this with the actions as you say the rhyme:

Teddy bear, teddy bear, touch your nose,
Teddy bear, teddy bear, touch your toes,
Teddy bear, teddy bear, touch the ground,
Teddy bear, teddy bear, turn around!

And then you can add some other lines of your own for your two year old to imitate, like Teddy bear, teddy bear, clap your hands, or wiggle your nose or bark like a dog!

They really like the animal noise ones! And then they can think up some other actions all by themselves, and you end up copying them.

Also, we did the rhyme above with a real teddy bear, and got the teddy to do the actions, moving teddy's arms and body.
