Well the kids have grown a bit, but we did used to love the old Wiggles 🙂 So we translated the Wiggles’ version of ‘One Finger One Thumb Keep Moving’ for our Mandarin Motion Song and Story Time, which we had fun singing today 🙂

Here is the Wiggles’ English version to help you sing the Chinese version.  Just replace our Mandarin lyrics below.  My kids plan to make a Mandarin version video for you 🙂

手指大拇指 动动动

我们都很高兴 (repeat after each verse)

手指大拇指 胳膊 动动动

手指大拇指 胳膊 腿 动动动

手指 大拇指 胳膊 腿 点着的头动动动

手指 大拇指 胳膊 腿 点着的头 站起来 坐下来动动动

手指 大拇指 胳膊 腿 点着的头站起来 转个圈 坐下来 动动动
