Two Little Blackbirds - Ideas

When doing the fingerplay "Two Little Blackbirds" I encourage the children to come up with different animals and hand motions.  For example, we do "two big elephants sitting on a hill"  making our hands into fists and pounding on the floor.  We use deep,slow voices.  For caterpillars we place our index fingers on the floor and wiggle them using back and forth using fast, high pitched voices.  We have come up with several different animals and movements for this game.
