He is in a basket, basket, basket

The princess she is swimming in the River Nile.
She finds the baby Moses, Moses, Moses
She finds the baby Moses on the River Nile.
Fine Motor Practice
  • Cotton Q-Tips Painting: For this activity, you will need paper, q-tips, and paint. Lay down a piece of paper and open up some paint. Instead of using a paintbrush, have your child use a q-tip to paint with.This activity is a simple way to help develop a child's fine motor skills. The fine "pinch" grip required to hold the small q-tip in place and to move it around the paper is ideal for building your child's small hand muscles. 
Art 
  • Under the Table Coloring: For this activity, you will need to use a sturdy table in your house, paper, and crayons or markers. Tape a piece of paper to the under-side of the table. Have your child lay down on the floor, on their backs, and reach up to color or mark the paper.
