166. The Venturesome Children.
After Froebel.                                                                                                         Fr. Seidel.
[Note:—One arm and hand with the elbow resting on the table, represent the tree, the fingers of the other hand are the children. They climb slowly up the "tree." At the words "now they fall down," they drop quickly out of sight in the lap. At "here we are," they are held up again.]
167. Rock-a-by, Baby.
Old Nursery Ehyme.
[Note:—In the kindergarten, this may be used as a finger game or as an arm game. In the finger game, a cradle is formed with two hands, the thumbs representing two babies; this cradle, resting on the table, rocks gently from side to side, and affords a good wrist movement. In the arm game, the lifted arms swaying from side to side represent the top branches of the tree holding the cradle.]
