I’m A Little Teapot <\/strong>is an American novelty song about the heating and pouring of a teapot or a whistling tea kettle.<\/p>\n

The song was originally written by George Harold Sanders and Clarence Z. Kelley and published in 1939.<\/p>\n

<\/sup> By 1941, a Newsweek<\/i> article referred to the song as “the next inane novelty song to sweep the country”. (Source: Wikipedia<\/a>)<\/sup><\/p>\n

It is a favourite traditional Nursery Rhyme song packed with potential for early childhood learning. Also, it is a simple song and easy to sing.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m a little teapot, short and stout.
\n(Standing)<\/em>
\nHere is my handle, here is my spout.
\n(Stand with one hand on hip and the other out to the side, for the spout)\u00a0<\/em>
\nWhen I get all steamed up, hear me shout,
\nTip me over, pour me out!
\n(Bend body sideways, as if pouring out tea)<\/em><\/p>\n

Teaching Points: action, gross motor skills, improvisation, drama.<\/p>\n
