One of our favourite #rhymes to sign with #Makaton hope you enjoy finding out who is filling up our boat with funny things!
Here are the lyrics with Makaton sign transcription:
I left my boat out in the bay (BOAT / SEA)
I left it there just yesterday (BOAT / YESTERDAY)
And now it's full of ripe pineapples (FULL / PINEAPPLES)
Someone put pineapples in my boat in the bay (PERSON / PINEAPPLES / BOAT / SEA)
It wasn't you, it wasn't me (NO / YOU / NO / ME)
Was it the monkeys in the coconut tree? (MONKEY / COCONUT / TREE)
I left my boat out in the bay
I left it there just yesterday
And now it's full of mashed potatoes (FULL / MASHED POTATOES)
Someone put potatoes in my boat in the bay (PERSON / POTATOES / BOAT / BAY)
It wasn't you (WE DON’T KNOW WHO) (NO YOU) (NO KNOW WHO)
it wasn't me (WE DIDN’T SEE) (NO ME) (NO / SEE)
Was it the monkeys in the coconut tree? (MONKEY / COCONUT / TREE)
I left my boat out in the bay
