If You're Happy and You Know It... Don't Clap

Jack has always loved playing the piano. His latest hobby, however, is pretending to play the piano. He sits on his bed on a pillow and faces the foot board, putting his feet down in between the mattress and the foot board. Then he uses the foot board as his pretend piano and "plays" his songs. He could seriously do this all day! I guess it feels more like a real piano (size wise) than his little baby toy piano (hint, hint, Santa Clause!)

Anyway, he has an entire repertoire of songs that he plays but his favorite lately is "If You're Happy and You Know It." However, he changes it up just a bit. Here is his version:

If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!

(whispers to me, to the beat of "clap, clap") Don't clap

If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!

Don't clap

If you're happy and you know it, then you're face will surely show it,

if you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!

Don't clap

What a silly boy!! Not sure why he insists on the no clapping rule, but in my opinion, it really takes away from the song's charm... :)
