AL NO TIKBIREINI BEMITZRAYIM
AL NO TIKBIREINI BEMITZRAYIM
Yakov asked the shevatim
“Do not bury me in mitzrayim”
AL NO TIKBIREINI BEMITZRAYIM
Yosef begged his brothers
“Do not leave me here alone”
so up from mitzrayim, Moshe carried his bones
Yakov and Yosekf, we know well
Shared a love for Eretz Yisroel
AL NO TIKBIREINI BEMITZRAYIM
THE BABYSITTER
© Music and Lyrics by Dina Storch
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
Here comes the babysitter – Yippee!! Hooray!
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
I’ve got a hunch that Mommy’s going away!
There’s something in her pocket
I think it is a prize
She says we cannot see it
Then she twinkles with her eyes
She tells us it’s a secret
But we know it’s a surprise
She thinks that we are sleeping
But we’re peeking with our eyes
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
Here comes the babysitter – jump into bed!!
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
I’ve got a hunch that soo Shema will be said!
Mommy sometimes leaves me
But never by myself
She finds a friendly babysitter
Who is glad to help
My mommy’s information
Is hanging from the shelf
In case I lose my pacifier
She can call her cell!!!
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
Here comes the babysitter – holding the phone
“Mommy – I lost my paci – where’s my blankey? I can’t find it”
“Oh no, it’s in the car – I’m coming right home!
She’s on the phone and babbling
And laughing with her friends
I know she brought her notebook
And she showed me all her pens
She was supposed to study
I hear her laugh again
I didn’t know it’s so much fun
To study with your friends
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
Here comes the babysitter – Yippee!! Hooray!
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
I’ve got a hunch she’s here forever to stay!
She tells us yummy stories
Then she shuts the light
She tucks us in, one at a time
And whispers a ‘good night’
She’s in the hall and pops inside
When we begin to fight
She’s at the door – oh, Mommy’s here
“Quick!! – shut your eyes real tight!
There goes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
She may be gone but I am never alone
There goes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
I hear a whisper – “Yes, my Mommy is home!!!
Here comes the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
Here comes the babysitter – Yippee!! Hooray!
Maybe the babysitter, babysitter, babysitter
Next time forever will stay!
BARUCH HASHEM
Music and Lyrics by: Mrs. Dina Storch
On Uncle Moishy Album
It’s a great big joy for a Jewish girl and boy
To think of the world and good things in it
And when we say “Oh! What a perfect day!”
We thank Hashem for every single minute
Baruch Hashem – my cold is gone – I’m well!
Baruch Hashem that things are fine
Hashem has given me all that I need
And for that I thank Him all the time
When the day is done and we’ve ended all our fun
I wash up and off I go to bed
I shut the light
Say “Shema” and then “Good Night”
But wait! –
There’s one thing more that must be said
Baruch Hashem – my cold is gone – I’m well!
Baruch Hashem that things are fine
Hashem has given me all tha I need

Run, run, run

Now it's bedtime funtime
Oh, what a special treat

DREIDEL RHYMES
© Tune: Dreidel, Dreidel, Lyrics: Dina Storch
Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Clay
And When It’s Dry And Ready
Oh, Dreidel I Shall Play
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Glass
I Put It In My Pocket
And Brought It Into Class
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Wood
And When It’s All Painted
It Surely Will Look Good
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Cement
I Let It Dry For Hours
So That It Wouldn’t Be Bent
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Paper
I Colored It With Crayons
And Gave It To My Neighbor
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Snow
I Put It In The Freezer
Until It Was Ready To Go
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Carpet
And When It’s Dry And Ready
I’ll Sell It In The Market
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Sand
I Mixed It With Some Water
And Shaped It With My Hand
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Dough
I Put It In The Oven
Until It Was Ready To Go
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Plastic
And When It’s Dry And Ready
It Sure Will Be Fantastic
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Paper
It Was So Very Special
Because I Was Its Maker
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of A Bag
And When It’s Dry And Ready
I’ll Wave It Like A Flag
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Beads
And When It’s Attached And Ready
It’s Letters I Will Read
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Hay
And When The Horses See It
They All Will Say “Neigh, Neigh”
I Have A Little Dreidel
I Made It Out Of Taffy
And When It’s In My Stomach
I Will Be So Happy
HEVEI AZ KANOMER

Lyrics by Dina Storch
HEVEI HEVEI AZ KANOMER
LA’ASOS RETZON OVICHA – we declare
Let us learn to use our zman
The minute and the second hand
For torah, avodah, gemilus chasodim
We’re making our friends happy with nice words
When morah speaks to us – her voice is heard
On the bus and on the street
Everyone whom we do meet
With a smile each person we do greet
From early morning on – modeh ani
We’re thankful – as thankful as can be
Until the time we go to bed
Shema yisrael we have said
Every moment we huve used wisely
And when we add the good things we have done
Hashem collects them all – one by one
So every hour let us choose
Our mitzvah muscle power to use
Carrying out the ratzon hashem

I CAN HEAR
© Lyrics: Dina Storch
I hear a knock at the door
I hear the creaking of the floor
I hear the lion’s great, big roar
I hear all this and much, much more
I hear the doorbell ding, dong, ding
I hear the telephone ring, ring, ring
I hear my brother sing, sing, sing
I can hear almost anything!
I can hear the train blow “TOOT!”
I can hear the hunter shoot
I can hear myself on the flute
And I think that my ears look cute!
I CAN SEE
© Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle Lyrics: Dina Storch
See the TZIPOR flying by
In the SHOMAYIM way up high
See the mountains, see the trees
See the wind blow off their leaves
I can see things far and near
I can see a grizzly bear
I can see with my two eyes – every shape
I LIFT MY EYES
© Adapted from original with new Lyrics by: Mrs. Dina Storch
I lift my eyes and what do I see
A great big world surrounding me
Everything created so perfectly
With wisdom and beauty
Hashem is our Creator - ani maamin
With hashgocho He runs the world that I’m in
Giving me tests - a nisayon to grow
yes, the more I see - the more I know
Who made the sky so blue
Who made the great big sea
Who made the heavens and
GUESS OH GUESS
© Music and Lyrics by Mrs. Dina Storch
Guess, oh guess what I heard
I heard it from a little bird
The little birdie in the tree
It was talking to me
Grab a mitzvah - don’t delay
Do it now - yes do it right away
Hurry and complete each mitzvah now
I will tell you how
The yetzer hora has his many tricks
He tells us to be lazy or play sick
Imagine you’re a soldier of Hashem
To serve Him you would surely be quick
We have been watching you from far
And you are doing mitzvos - yes, you are
Spread your wings - together we will fly
With Zrizus we can soar up to the sky

Forgive, forgive your friend
Because in the end
Hashem will forgive, yes, Hashem will forgive you
For all of the sins, for all the chatoim
And just because you forgave your friend
IT'S ANOTHER WONDERFUL MORNING
© Adapted from original for siddur play by Mrs. Dina Storch
It’s another wonderful morning
And I’ll start it with a song
I will say my modeh ani
Won’t you come and sing along?
I will open up y siddur
And brachos I will say
My precious little siddur
Stays with me night and day
So together let us travel
And daven from each page
Just like our Avos did
Tefilos never age
Adam Horishon davened for rain
So all the plants would grow
And Noach davened for the mabul to stop
And out of the Teivah he did go
When our nation is in trouble
We daven to Hashem for help
And we daven for a refua
When someone isn’t feeling well
We can turn the pages of our siddur
There’s a tefila for everything
So come with me, travel with me

From head to toe

So my head and shoulders

Kol Atzmosai Tomarno
Kol Atzmosai Tomarno
All of me will say “Thank you!”
And even my heart
My favorite part
Will thank Hashem for giving me this start
So my head and shoulders
My hands and feet
My front and back
Stamp 1,2,3
Kol Atzmosai Tomarno
Kol Atzmosai Tomarno
All of me will say “Thank you!”

OPEN UP YOUR EYES
© Tune: Yom Tov Erlich, Lyrics: Dina Storch
Open up your eyes and take a great big look
The world is standing right before you like an open book
The pages in their order, pictures unexplored
So how is it that we could ever even ask for more?
Oh – everyone is cheering – everyone is gay
The eency weency spider is webbing up his way
The wind is blowing softly, the grass is growing high
Hear the bluebird singing way up in the sky
So – pull the bucket ‘till the top
Just keep on pulling – don’t you stop
Live your life, yes, live it well
Open that restraining shell
ובחרת†בחיים†– fill your days up to the brim
Surely you will change into a better you!
PLEASE COME IN - HACNOSAS ORCHIM SONG
© Tune: Where is Thumbkin
Lyrics by: Mrs. Dina Storch
Please come in - please come in
Be my guest - be my guest
I’ll give you a seat…..
And a place to rest…..
I’ll pour you a drink….
With something warm to eat….
A warm and cozy blanket….
And a bed for you to sleep….
And when you leave….
I’ll walk you to the door……
I hope you will come back again…….
I’ll greet you once more…….
Hachnosas orchim - invite someone

Lyrics by: Dina Storch
Run, run, run run to do a mitzvah
Don’t do it with atzlus
Run, run, run run to do a mitzvah

Run to get the mail for your father
The baby’s crying - run and pick him up
Runa nd bring the laundry to your mother

TZITZIS
© Lyrics: Dina Storch
Every morning when I wake
There’s something that I wear
I keep it on all through the day
And see that it doesn’t tear
Oh, Tzitzis on my right
Tzitzis on my left
On the front and in the back
On all four sides
To remind me that I am a Jew
And to the Mitzvos I must abide
The special Bracha I must say
Is “Al Mitzvas Tzitzis”
I say it loud, I say it clear
And give them a great big kiss
Oh, Tzitzis on my right
Tzitzis on my left
On the front and in the back
On all four sides
To remind me that I am a Jew
And to the Mitzvos I must abide

Lyrics: Dina Storch
Summer, winter, fall or spring
There’s a little bit of everything
Who will be the one to say
What the MEZEG HO’AVIR might be today?
The sun shines – the wind blows
And sometimes we get frozen toes
The birdie sings and so do we
Today is _____________
WELCOME BACK
©Music and lyrics by: Mrs. Dina Storch
Adaptation on Uncle Moishy’s World opening song
Welcome back to another year of fun
Welcome back everyone
Shalom, shalom to you and you and you
We’re having fun and learning, too
Songs about Torah, songs about Mitzvos
Songs about Shabbos, songs about Middos
Songs about just about
Anything you think about
Anything you dream about
Anything that makes Hashem proud of you!!!!
WIND SONG
© Lyrics: Dina Storch
What jiggles the windowpane
Messes my hair
Flies kites throughout the air
What bends the tree branches
And whispers, and sings
Wind, only wind –
The wind can do all of these things
