I Love You Rituals

Every morning, we start the day with I Love You Rituals.  We find a partner and sit knee to knee, holding hands.  Together, the Dream Team does I Love You Rituals.  They are remakes to nursery rhymes with caring words to help us build a connection with our friends! Looking eye to eye, with gentle touches, helps us great ready to have a great day in the Dream Team!



Some of our favorites are:
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the Kings horses, and all the kings men,
could put Humpty together again!

Twinkle Twinkle little star,
What a wonderful child you are.
With bright eyes and bright round cheeks,
A talented child from head to feet.
Twinkle Twinkle little star,
What a wonderful child you are.

There was a wonderful woman who lived a shoe
She had so many children she knew exactly what to do.
She held them, and loved them, and tucked them into bed.
I love you, I love you is what she said!

Georgie Porgie pudding and pie
Gave his friends a big high five. 
With his friends he loved to play,
And the gift of a smile he gave each day.

Margie Pargie pudding and pie
Gave her friends a big high five.
With her friends she loved to play,
And the gift of a handshake she gave each day.
