What will I see at the Zoo?

KANGAROO
Kangaroo hugs:  Basically you face your partner and wrap your arms around each other – then they both jump and the big person picks up the little person!  (I did not have children do Kangaroo hugs with each other.)  Of course they love it!

Five Little Monkeys 
Five little monkeys jumping on the bed 
One fell off and bumped his head 
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said 
No more monkeys jumping on the bed! 
(Sing with 4,3,2,1 little monkeys) then... 
No little monkeys jumping on the bed 
None fell off and bumped his head 
So Momma called the doctor and the doctor said 
Put those monkeys back in bed! 

I wrapped paper around a juice box to make a 'bed' and glued on a cotton ball for the 'pillow'.
