Two New Nursery Rhymes

I’ve been reading old ones to the little guy, but how many times is he going to encounter pudding strings and haycocks?

The Oven is Hot

The oven is hot,
The oven is hot.
Will I fiddle with the knobs?
No, I will not.
Will I reach up high and grab
The handle of the pot?
No, I will not,
Because the oven is hot.

The Washing Machine

The washing machine
Makes a wonderful sound
As it jumbles the washing
Around and around

We open the door
And we pop the clothes in
And they tumble around
In a spin, spin, spin.

For 'oven' read 'cooker' if you're British. For 'door' read 'lid' if you have a top-loader.
