Thanks for the trip down memory land.

Here's a commercial from the 1950s or early 1960s

[setting: a little boy pretending to be a choo choo train]:

Charlie says
Love my Good & Plenties.
Charlie says
Really rings the [my?] bell.
Charley says
Love my Good & Plenties.
Don't know any other candy
that I love so well.

Here's another one from the 1950s:

Jump!
It's fun!
Jump!
It's easy!
Jump!
We love to play Parchesi

[Parchesi was {is?} a children's board game].

"Big Mac, Filet-O-Fish, Quarter Pounder, French Fries, Icy Coke, Thick Shake, Sundae and Apple Pie. Beat, Beat, Beat and the dish ran away with the spoon".

My daughter remembers doing a handclap rhyme to this chant based on that commercial:
"Big Mac, Filet-O-Fish, Quarter Pounder, French Fries, Icy Coke, Thick Shake, Sundae and Apple Pie. You deserve a break today.And the dish ran away with the spoon".

She thinks was mid to late 1980s but she's not sure. Can someone confirm that? Also, I find it interesting that someone else remembers adding the line "and the dish rang away with the spoon" to this chant. Was this line {and the "You deserve a break today" line} in the original jingle or did kids just add it {those two lines?}

The Kit Kat Bar jingle {posted on this thread by GUEST
Date: 05 Aug 05 - 04:12 PM} with basically the same words given by Guest is also being used as a two partner children's handclap rhyme. The onlyu difference I've found is "Choclaty coating gonna make my day".

I'm curious do folks know of any other commercial that was converted into a children's handclap rhyme or jump rope rhyme?
