Hickory Dickory Dock (The mouse ran up the clock ...)
Perhaps one of the best remembered as a popular nursery rhyme and finger-play that describes the adventures of a spider as it ascends, descends, and reascends the downspout or "waterspout" of a gutter system or, alternatively, the spout of a teapot or open-air reservoir. As one of the best kids songs, it is usually accompanied by a sequence of gestures that mimic the words of the song.

Horse Song (Clippety clop, it's a beautiful ...)

I'm A Little Teapot (Short and stout Here is ...)
Song written by George Harold Sanders and Clarence Z. Kelley. He and his wife ran a dance school for kids, which taught the "Waltz Clog", a popular and easy-to-learn tap dance routine. This routine, however, proved too difficult for the younger students to master. To solve this problem, George Sanders wrote The Teapot Song, which required minimal skill and encouraged better natural pantomime. Both song and its accompanying dance, the "Teapot Tip", became enormously popular in America and overseas.

Notes
The gestural components of the rhymes serve to attract the child's attention, and reciting chants or stories can help a child to develop an ear for sounds, and discover that they can be manipulated and changed. They can also help children develop such skills as fine motor co-ordination and following directions.
From all ages children become active listeners and can control their eyes, body, and attention on the teacher.
