This Little Piggy Had Roast Beef

This Little Piggy Had Roast Beef
The other night my wife cooked roast beef, mashed potato & steamed vegetables for dinner - yum! I guess she liked the presents that I gave her for Christmas.

Anyway, this gave me an opportunity to teach Owen one of my favourite nursery rhymes (a kind of children`s song/poem), which features roast beef. It`s called `This Little Piggy`:

This little piggy went to market.
This little piggy stayed home.
This little piggy had roast beef.
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy went wee wee wee all the way home!

When you say each line, you touch a toe on the child`s foot (big toe first). When you say the final line, you run your fingers from the little toe up the child`s leg & tickle them. You can see how to do it in this Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8qMwieKTGA

Kids really love it, which is probably why it`s still popular after so long; it was first published in 1760.

The child's foot is so pretty. I envy it because my foot is getting rough due to the cold. So I am looking forward to become to spring.
Oh, spring! Come, come!! Welcome spring!!!
