Songs with gestures
But there must be an all-inclusive teaching
resource out there. Are kindergarten teachers born knowing these songs? Have you tried the library? --Helen |

I've never seen a video that taught finger plays, but I suppose there could be one. Most of the teachers I know who do them with the kids just watched other teachers do them first when they are student teaching or observing classrooms. Actually, our library does have some resources like this (we teach child studies). For a parent, the best resources are probably books that contain written instructions (mostly with names like Games/Activities for your Toddler). However, there are tapes like Wiggerly Woo and books like Merrily Merrily.
