Rain, Rain come out and Play

A tidy-up song. My grandmother used to say "A place for everything and everything in its place and "Put away, not down". This song highlights that concept while also indicating that we care for things so they can be found. Social emotional learning, with self-regulation, responsible choices, and thinking forward. I love to sing this song when kiddos are just coming in the house or when they are starting to put something down in a random place. Invite children to put away, not down during expectation setting at the beginning part of the transition cycle.
