Book excerpt: Excerpt from Finger Plays for Nursery and Kindergarten With a little study of the charming and expressive pictures with which the artist, Mr. L. J. Bridgman, has so sympathetically illustrated the rhymes, mothers and kinder gartners have easily understood what motions were intended. To elucidate still farther, however, the playing of The Merry Little Men may be thus described: During the singing of the first verse, the children look about in every direction for the little men, but keep the hands hidden. At the beginning of the second verse, raise both hands to full View with fingers outspread and quiet. At the words, The first to come, etc., let the thumbs be shown alone, then the others as named in turn, till all are again outspread as at the beginning of the second verse. In the last verse the arms are moved from side to side, hands being raised and fingers uttering nimbly all the time. When displaying the busy little men, raise the hands as high as possible.
