Che Che Koolay, is a vocable song from Ghana, Africa. It is an echo me song or call and response. Children in Africa use it like a Head and Shoulders song, but try and make up your own body percussion, or maybe add instruments you can find around your house to play a part from the video on the left.

The Doorbell Rang by Pat Hutchins, with a song for the page turns. Also, the file above has types of cookies and what there rhythms would be spoken, maybe you can come up with a B section to the song. See if you can think of other cookies that I did not list. If you come up with a spoken or sung cookie chant I would love to hear it.
