Children stand in a circle. Use a selection rhyme to choose a child to stand in the middle of the circle.
The children in the circle join hands and turn around the child in the centre in a clockwise direction.
As they turn they sing -
" What can you do Punchanella little fella ?
What can you do Punchanella little one ? "
The child in the centre performs an action anything the want - jumping, dancing,
turning around etc. ..............
As this child performs the chosen action they sing -
"I can do this Punchanella little fella.
I can do this Punchanella little ones."
The circle stops turning and, when the middle child has finished his/her action and rhyme, they perform the child's chosen action and sing -
" We can do that Punchanella little fella.
We can do that Punchanella little one"
