Water, soap and fresh towel … ask in the kitchen
Free of charge!

I know it doesn’t sound good,
but since English is not my mothertongue, rhyming is rather difficult that is why i am asking your help

I updated this one it was so old-fashioned:

Good Health Song
Tune “Twinkle Little Star.”

Healthly children everywhere,
Exercise and breathe fresh air,
Soap and water we have seen,
They keep hands and faces clean.
Healthy children often smile,
As they stop to rest a while,
Learning each day as they should,
To take time to eat pure food.
Healthy children bow to you,
We are very happy too,
See the tooth brush on parade,
Of the germs we’re not afraid.
Healthy children all in turn,
Say we have so much to learn,
To stay healthy is the best plan,
And we all know that we can.
Healthly children everywhere,
Exercise and breathe fresh air.

Song to the tune of Oh Dear! What Can the Matter Be?

I Oh dear, what is the remedy,
Oh dear, what is the remedy,
Oh dear, what is the remedy,
Children so careless are we,
We promised to brush all our teeth every morning,
We promised to brush all our teeth every morning,
We promised to brush all our teeth every morning,
We’re very forgetful you see.

2 Oh dear, what shall become of us,
Oh dear, what shall become of us,
Oh dear, what shall become of us,
Poor health will folllow we know,
To take frequent baths now we all have had warning,
To take frequent baths now we all have had warning.
To take frequent baths now we all have had warning,
We’ll not longer be careless as can be.

*****

Towels and soap, where there’s life there’s hope,
That children will keep clean.
Towels and soap, where there’s life there’s hope,
To try for Good Health we mean.

*****

Little tooth brushes clean and new.
We can never stand abuse,
But were made for daily use.

(I just made this up so bare with me. Also used one of the one liners mentioned above)

have a place for everything and everything in its place
you found the kitchen neat dont leave it a disgrace
when you done on the counter, the stove and the floor
wipe up all your crumbs, your oils, and spills galore

Mother says, and of course she knows.
That clean hands and face.
Make me fresh as a rose.

Esau Pound – Leaving Things Around

When you’re finished
with your play,
Do you put
your toys away?
Do you put
away your hat,
And your coat,
and things like that?
Or, are you
like Esau Pound?
He’s the Goop
who leaves things ’round!

Anyone else know of any neatness poems?

It’s for my little sister..Thanks..

Have a place for everything and everything in its place.

A little on topic.

Thanks!

Dirty Jim

There was one little Jim,
‘Tis reported of him,
And must be to his lasting disgrace,
That he never was seen
With hands at all clean,
Nor yet ever clean was his face.

His friends were much hurt
To see so much dirt,
And often they made him quite clean;
But all was in vain,
He got dirty again,
And not at all fit to be seen.

It gave him no pain
To hear them complain,
Nor his own dirty clothes to survey;
His indolent mind
No pleasure could find
In tidy and wholesome array.

The idle and bad,
Like this little lad,
May love dirty ways, to be sure;
But good boys are seen,
To be decent and clean,
Although they are ever so poor.

Jane Taylor (1783-1824)

Specifically on the topic…I keep my body clean…

thanks

Ah! why will my dear little girl be so cross,
And cry, and look sulky and pout?
To lose her sweet smile is a terrible loss,
I can’t even kiss her without.

You say you don’t like to be washed and be drest
But would you be dirty and foul?
Come, drive that long sob from your dear little breast,
And clear your sweet face from its scowl.

If the water is cold, and the comb hurts your head,
And the soap has got into your eye,
Will the water grow warmer for all that you’ve said?
And what good will it do you to cry?

It is not to tease you, and hurt you, my sweet,
But only for kindness and care,
That I wash you and dress you, and make you look neat,
And comb out your tanglesome hair.

I don’t mind the trouble, if you would not cry,
But pay me for all with a kiss;
That’s right, take the towel and wipe your wet eye;
I thought you’d be good after this.
