Parent Tip: Making cleanup time more fun
Song: “Mulberry Bush” (Wee Sing Children's Songs and Fingerplays)
• When it’s time to pick up toys, the parent starts by singing:
This is the way we pick up our toys,
Pick up our toys, pick up our toys,
This is the way we pick up our toys
And put them all away.
• The children will join in and follow by example.
• Change the words to fit the items to be cleaned up (e.g. clothes, dishes..).
