♥ “Happity Birthday!” the Song

A “hippity-hoppity-happity” SONG to celebrate the BIRTHDAY CHILD! 

 Happity Birthday!

Have a hippity-hoppity-happity birthday!

A hippity-hoppity-happity birthday!

Have a hippity-hoppity-happity birthday!

A hippity-hoppity-happity birthday to you!

 

Hip-Hop-Hip-Hop! Hip-Hop-Hip-Hop!

Happity Birthday to you!

 

Hip-hop-hip-hop! Hip-hop-hip-hop!

Happity birthday to you, to you!

It’s your birthday and we wish you many, many, many, many more!  (2x)

Suggested Movements Children may hop like bunnies in place.  I suggest hopping like “Irish” bunnies, side-to-side, which is easier in many respects. For the second round, have them follow a leader in a circle hopping.   Put birthday child in middle and everyone gather around and point to birthday person on “It’s your birthday….”

♥ “BIRTHDAY BUNNY” CAKES

You can make bunny cakes from cupcakes!  Take a photo of Buttons and Bows to your bakery.

♥ Play “Pin the Tail on the Bunny”. Cut out a bunny shape out of posterboard. Use the Post-It notes that are shaped like a cottontail. You can write each child’s name on the Post-It before they try to “pin” it on the bunny, blindfolded. Have fun!  Or use cotton balls with tape for the tail.

♥ PARTY FAVORS:  Bunny ears, buttons for the boys, bows for the girls.

♥ Read “Happity Birthday!” the Book on Kindle.

♥  Do “The ZOO Song” as a fun activity!  Give the children animal masks to wear.  And have them do the actions as the song describes!   See the lyrics here.
