TIMOTHY’S SONG

Oh, Timothy! Oh, Timothy!

You are so cute and cuddly.

Oh, Timothy! Oh, Timothy!

And try to talk.

It won’t be long

Before you walk.

Oh, Timothy! Oh, Timothy!

You are so cute and cuddly.

LITTLE SPARROW

Good morning, little sparrow.

How are you today?

Did you try to flap your wings

And fly and fly away.

(By JVP 1999)

(Gesture with hands crooked under your armpits,

flapping your elbows; then, spread your arms like wings and start flying.)

I’ve come to say hello.

My name is Helen-Ri-Ri.

Won’t you
