A playful rhyme for your child to notice, name, and express big feelings in safe, joyful ways, building early emotional regulation.
Presented by Rachel from Bassendean Memorial Library.
Lyrics:
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you’re happy and you know it, and you really want to show it,
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you’re sad and you know it, say “boo hoo”…
If you’re angry and you know it, stomp your feet…
If you’re scared and you know it, say “oh no”…
If you’re sleepy and you know it, take a nap (shh, shh)…
If you’re excited and you know it, shout “hooray!”…
