Words

Hello, hello
Very nice to see you
Hello hello,
How are you today?
Hello, hello
Very nice to see you
Hello hello,
How are you today?
We say “Hello”
We’re very pleased to see you
We say “Hello”

(can you say and sign hello?)

We say “Hello”
We’re very pleased to see you
We say “Hello”

(tap along with the music, sign “Stop” at the end)

More ideas with this video

• If you can’t tap along, maybe a friend can tap your arm or foot for you so that you can feel the beat of the music.
• Can you stamp your feet to the music? Can you tap your shoulders or your head? Move your fingers
• Maybe try playing along with a shaker, or tap something that makes a sound that you like. A box of cereal?
