Time To Wake Up!
Ticketty Boo © 1987 Sally Jaeger
I dumped my porridge on the floor, just so Mom would make some more.
Chorus: Don’t worry, Mommy, everything’s ticketty boo.
I poured my cornflakes in the drawer, just so Mom would give me more. Chorus
I bunged my berries at the wall, just so Mom could watch ‘em fall. Chorus
I threw my biscuits way up high, just so Mom could watch ‘em fly. Chorus
I gave my Mommy quite a show. She said, “Baby, no, no, no!” Chorus
Little Eyes Wake Up © 1999 Sally Jaeger
Little eyes wake up, little eyes wake up!
The rooster’s crowing, the cow is lowing,
And the sun is climbing in the sky,
And there’s fresh milk in the pail.
Little nose wake up, little nose wake up,
The bread is baking and butter’s churning,
The rooster’s crowing, the cow is lowing,
And the sun is climbing in the sky,
And there’s fresh milk in the pail.
Little ears wake up, little ears wake up,
The bells are ringing and birds are singing,
The bread is baking and butter’s churning,
The rooster’s crowing, the cow is lowing,
And the sun is climbing in the sky,
And there’s fresh milk in the pail.
Little mouth wake up, little mouth wake up,
The day is dawning, so stop your yawning,
The bells are ringing and birds are singing,
The bread is baking and butter’s churning,
The rooster’s crowing, the cow is lowing,
And the sun is climbing in the sky,
And there’s fresh milk in the pail.

Toothbrush Song © 2016 Sally Jaeger
For Jaeger (Oct. 2016)
Toothbrush, toothbrush in your mouth,
First go north and then go south.
First go up and then go down.
Side to side and round and round!
For Timo (May 2017)
Toothbrush, toothbrush scrub my tongue,
Scrub it gently til you’re done.
Scrub it here and scrub it there -
Don’t forget your underwear.
For my Dentist (September 2018)
Now get the floss and floss your gums,
Up and down with fingers and thumb.
No more plaque and tooth decay,
Taking good care every day!
For Jaeger (October 2018)
Now grab the floss and floss your teeth,
Up above and underneath.
No more plaque and tooth decay,
Hear the dentist shout HOORAY!
