BABY EINSTEIN GAMES

PUPPET SHOW

Baby Einstein games can make your party. With a little imagination, you can put on a Baby Einstein puppet show to entertain the little ones. What we did was to drape a sheet over a couple of chairs, then we both sat behind it with a puppet on each hand. We used the dragon, monkey, dog and duck.

Since we had watched plenty of Baby Einstein DVDs, it was easy to make it up as we went along. We had as much fun doing the show as the children did watching it.

Since we didn't have the puppets already, we purchased them as part of baby's first birthday presents and gave them to him right after the show. We borrowed them back for the Baby Einstein Ganes and the sing-along.

(Baby Einstein puppets can be purchased separately or as a set).

BABY EINSTEIN SING-ALONG

We used Baby Einstein puppets to help us conduct a sing-along. We found songs familiar to the little ones were the best ones and have included the words to several favorites.

You can do like we did and play a CD and sing along if you would like. We used Baby Einstein Sing and Play.

HEAD AND SHOULDERS, KNEES AND TOES

Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes

Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes

And eyes and ears and mouth and nose

Head, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes

(Repeat, getting faster each time)

OLD MACDONALD

(we used puppets for each animal)

Old MacDonald had a farm,

Ee i ee i oh!

And on that farm he had some chickens,

Ee i ee i oh!

With a cluck-cluck here,

And a cluck-cluck there

Here a cluck, there a cluck,

Everywhere a cluck-cluck

Old MacDonald had a farm

Ee i ee i oh!

Old MacDonald had a farm,

And on that farm he had some dogs,

Ee i ee i oh!With a woof-woof here,

And a woof-woof-woof there

Here a woof, there a woof,

Everywhere a woof-woof

Old MacDonald had a farm

Ee i ee i oh!

Old MacDonald had a farm,

Ee i ee i oh!

And on that farm he had some turkeys,Ee i ee i oh!

With a gobble-gobble gobble-gobble here,

And a gobble-gobble gobble-gobble there

Here a gobble-gobble, there a gobble-gobble,

Everywhere a gobble-gobble-gobble

Old MacDonald had a farm

BABY EINSTEIN GAMES

FILL THE BASKET

Watch the babies make up their own Baby Einstein games. Some will empty and fill their baskets, some will crawl, scoot or walk to the center to get more toys and others will go for other children's toys.

It is fun to see what each one does.

CAREERS

Watch the babies as make their way to the basket and choose an item. If a baby picks a book, he will be a scholar. A baby choosing a bowl will be a chef, the one with a dog will be a veterinarian and so on.

Be sure to take plenty of pictures of this game as they can be used for cute personalized thank-you cards later.

We used Baby Einstein toys that baby already had and added a few new ones. We also included the puppets that we used for other fun Baby Einstein Games and activities. Above are some of our favorite Baby Einstein toys.
