Parent Tot Itsy Bitsy Spider Song Activity

Parent Tot Activity

“Child in the water, sitting or being held. Parent in the water, next to, or holding child.

Sing: “”The Itsy Bitsy Spider climbed up the waterspout. / Down came the rain, and washed the spider out. / Out came the sun, and dried up all the rain / And then Itsy Bitsy Spider climbed up the spout again.””

Walk your hands up the child stomach, chest, shoulder and head during the “”Climbed up the waterspout””

Dip hand in water and sprinkle water over child, or pour water from bucket on child when when singing: “”Down came the rain…””

Look at the “”sun”” on “”out came the sun…””

Use hand to “”climb”” back up the child on last line.

Smile.”
