Thread Name: Childhood songs - Mit my hand on mine self
Subject: RE: Childhood songs - Mit my hand on mine self
I remember this song from when I was doing a teaching practic im with a grade four class, about 25 years ago. Lately, I volunteered to ski with my son's grade four class, and I was inspired to sing this funny song with the kids on the school bus. It was quite the hit. What we sang was:
"I point to myself, unt vas ist das here? Das ist mine brainboxer my mama-dear. Brain-boxer, brain-boxer, rinky-dinky do. Das vat I learned at my school. Uh-huh!"
The body parts were:
Brain-boxer (head)
Sight-seeers (eyes)
Horn-blower (nose)
Sound-seekers (ears)
Chatter-boxer (mouth)
Rubber-necker (neck)
Arm-benders (elbows)
Tick-tocker (heart)
Bread-basket (stomach)
Sitter-downer (behind)
Knee-knockers (knees)
Foot-stompers (feet)
