You almost certainly remember this rhyme from your own childhood, but in case you need a refresher, this is a clapping game for two. Sit across from one another and mirror one another's actions; first, clap your own hands together; next, cross arms over your chest and clap your hands again; finally, clap hands against your partners and repeat.
Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack,
All dressed in black, black, black,
With silver buttons, buttons, buttons,
All down her back, back, back.
She asked her mother, mother, mother,
For fifty cents, cents, cents,
To see the elephant, elephant, elephant.
Jump over the fence, fence, fence.
He jumped so high, high, high,
He reached the sky, sky, sky,
And he never came back, back, back,
‘Till the end of July, ‘ly, ‘ly.
