The Tasman songbook

Here are some of the songs Tasman likes to sing. She usually doesn't get all the words quite right, but the tune is generally there. Anyone listening would be able to tell what she was trying to sing.

• "ABC song." You can see a video of her singing this here. This is probably her best song.
• "Itsy Bitsy Spider." She likes doing the hand motions, especially when she gets to "wash the spider out."
• "Row, Row, Row Your Boat."
• "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star." This one's funny because the last line of the song is the first, so she thinks she's starting the song over and she'll just keep singing it over and over again.
  
• "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam." We discussed this one here on the blog a while back.
• "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes." She's getting better at the accompanying motions.
• "Little Bunny Foo Foo". She sings very little of this, but she gets really enthusiastic when it comes time for "bopping them on the head".
• "Five Little Monkeys." Meme taught her this one. (Meme—pronounced "may-may"—is what she calls Kirsti's mom.)
  

There's a fair number of songs she sings from TV shows.

• "Elmo's World."
  
• "Backyardigans." In addition to the main theme, she can sing just about any of the songs they sing on this show. In particular, she likes "Racing Day", "Treasure", "Secret Agents", "Surf's Up", "Stomp, Stomp, Stomp", "Mysterious, Very Mysterious", and "We're Going to Mars".
• "Blue's Clues." She'll sing along to the two different theme songs the show has had, and all the other songs they sing regularly.
  
• "Franklin."
• "Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!"
• "Jack's Big Music Show." She also likes to sing a song from one of the episodes that goes "Hop, hop, hop. Stomp, stomp, stomp. Flap, Flap. Coo coo ca choo."
  

Our favorite is when she makes up songs on request. We'll say, "Tas, can you sing a song about giraffes?" And then she'll launch into an improvised song about giraffes.
