Bob Building Blocks

Hi kids
How are you doing today?
Let's all get ready
Because today we're going to play with colorful shapes
And have lots of fun
Let all shapes introduce themselves one by one

Square is my name
My four sides are just the same
Turn me around, I don't care
I'm always the same, I'm a square

Circle is my name
Watch me turn round and round
And soon you'll learn
My outside edges never end
I'm a circle, I'm a circle

Rectangle is my name
My four sides are not the same
Two are short and two are long
Count my sides and come along
(One, two, three, four)

Triangle is my name
Up the hill, and to the top
Down the hill and then you stop
Straight across, tell me what you've got
A triangle, yes, I'm a triangle

Okay kids, now let's go
Play with shapes and build something more (yeah)
Now let's show our wonderful skills
A beautiful house of shapes, we will build

My four sides are the same
What's my name?
(Square) yes!
Let's put it there
Now look aloof and tell me the shape of a roof
(Triangle) yes!
Let's place it at a perfect angle

We're going strong
Now name me a shape with four sides
Two short, two long
(Rectangle) yes!
A rectangle it is and such a beautiful house we have built, (yeah)

Well that was fun
Now, let's make another one
We might wanna go someplace far
So let all of us, build a car (yes)

Which shape goes round and round with no end
Can you tell?
(A circle) yes!
A circle it is
Let's place it like this

A shape with two long sides
And two short sides, we need for our ride
(Rectangle) yes!
It's a rectangle and let's place it so
Which shape with four equal sides shall we place on the top
(Square) yes, it's a square!
In place, let it drop

Using all the shapes, a wonderful car we have made, (yeah)
For resting, let's make a tree
Why kids, don't you agree?
(Yes), let's start with a rectangle this time

Now doesn't that look fine
Which other shape should we use?
(Circle, rectangle, Bob, please tell us)
Okay, some triangles we shall choose
Wow! That looks like a beautiful tree
Kids, don't you agree? (yes)

Kids, now let's build something more
How about a pretty little seesaw
(Yes, on a seesaw we can play all day, all day)
Okay, which shape should we start with now

A triangle will be perfect for our seesaw
Now we need a shape with two sides short and two sides long
(Yes, let's build a rectangle along)
Now, let's gently place it down
Look, we have made a seesaw on our own
I'm having so much fun today (yes Bob, hurray, hurray)

We need to sit and eat somewhere
Let's build a table and some chairs
We'll use four rectangles, for the legs
Let's place them all at this angle
That looks great, thank you rectangle

Now let's take a shape that's round
Kids, can you tell me where that can be found?
(A circle) yes it's a circle!
Let's place it on the top
There's our lovely table
Even prettier than from a shop

Now, let's call squares and rectangle to build our chairs
That looks wonderful, now we can all sit somewhere
Thank you shapes
I had so much fun today
See you next time for more fun and play
