i got my oral b crocodile puppet today, and since he came ive been trying to think of croc songs as i thought i would use for an activity session at toddler group.
one song is bugging me though, i can only remember the end, it finishes with

.......teasy mr crocodile you can't catch me, along came mr crocodile as mean as he can be and SNAP when the crocodile oh dear me!

Anyone know the beggining?

the croc one we know is the monkey one too a wee bit different though

3 cheeky monkeys
swinging from a tree
teasing Mr crocodile
"you can't catch me"
along came Mr crocodile as quiet as can be (whisper this bit)
SNAP (and clap hands) went the crocodile and then there were 2 cheeky moneys.........

I love finding out different versions of songs :laughing:

oh and the 2nd verse to row your boat

Row row row your boat
gently down the stream
if you see a crocodile
don't forget to scream (cue loud screaming LOL :laughing: )

Row row row your boat
gently down the river
if you see a polar bear
don't forget to shiver

row row row your boat
gently across the lake
if you hear a hissing sound
it's probably a snake (and then make a hissing sound)

Row row row your boat
gently across the shore
if you see a lion
don't forget to roar (and then roar)

don't forget to laugh

We like this one:

Snap, Snap, Snap
A crocodile sat on my lap
I stroked it ever so gently
and now he's taking a nap (Whisper)

Snap, Snap, Snap
He's woken from his nap
And now he wants his breakfast,
Snap, Snap, Snap (Shout)

This usually involves me chasing the children around the garden!
:D

(rock side to side for this one)

Rock, rock, rock the boat
Gently to and fro
Watch out, give a shout
Into the water you go (I usually tip the child right over to the side at this point!)
