Tick Tock, Tick Tock

This is my absolute favorite babytime rhyme. First you start out gently swinging the baby like a pendulum. Then "Stop!" and figure out what time it is. 

To finish, you lift the baby up in the air and say "Cuckoo!" for each hour. Repeat.

Start with one o'clock and keep going until your arms are too tired. Members of the armed services are welcome to continue to 24 o'clock.

Toddlers love it too! Have them rock back and forth and then jump up at the end while shouting "Cuckoo!"

Here is the rhyme:

Tick tock, tick tock, 

I'm a little cuckoo clock. 

Tick tock, tick tock. Stop! 

What time is it? 

It's one o'clock…Cuckoo!
