Listen for the sounds Listen listen, listen Hello.
Hello!
Listen everyone, listen and play.
Where are we today?
We're outside in the park.
We've come to the park as it's such a lovely day for a walk.
Did you hear that animal barking?
I wonder if you can tell what animal it is.
Listen.
It's a d-o-g.
D-o-g.
Put those sounds together and make a word.
Dog.
There's a dog in the park.
Yes, I brought my dog to the park for a walk and he's having a lovely time.
He's got a big shaggy tail and there's something he loves to do with his tail when he's happy.
Listen to these sounds.
Can you make a word?
W A G W A
Wag.
The dog likes to wag his tail.
I call my dog Badger.
He's very special to me.
Of all the dogs I've ever met, he's my favourite.
Can you put those sounds together and make a word?
Pet.
My favourite pet.
And there's a dog in our first song.
It's one you might know, called How Much Is That Doggie in the Window?
Join in and sing along with me.
How much is that doggy in the window?
The one with the waggly tail.
How much is that doggy in the window?
I do hope that doggy's for sale.
I don't want a rabbit or a kitten.
I don't want a parrot that talks.
I don't want a tank of little fishes.
I can't take a goldfish for walks.
How much is that doggy in the window?
The one with the waggly tail.
How much is that doggy in the window?
I do hope that doggy's for sale.
Woof woof!
Listen, listen, listen, it's Rhyme Time!
The first of today's rhymes is about a hungry dog and his owner.
Perhaps you know it?
Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to fetch her poor dog a bone.
But when she got there, the cupboard was bare, and so the poor dog had none.
And here's a rhyme about a dog who got lost.
Oh, where, oh, where has my little dog gone?
Oh, where, oh, where can he be?
With his ears so short and his tail so long, oh, where, oh, where is he?
Listen, listen, listen in Storytime.
In our story today, there's a mischievous dog with a very shaggy, waggy tail.
He belongs to Mother Hubbard and if you listen, you'll hear how his tail gets him into trouble.
Shh!
Listen, listen.
The story's called... Oggy Dog.
Once upon a tea time, there was a very waggly tailed dog called Oggie Dog.
He lived with a woman called Old Mother Hubbard.
Oggie Dog had the waggliest tail ever.
And when he got excited, his tail went... Wag wag, wag wag, wag wag.
One day, Mother Hubbard was getting tea ready.
She was so hungry that her tummy was rumbling.
So, she made herself a plate of cheese sandwiches.
Scrummy, she said, as she put the plate on the little table by the fire.
Oggy was feeling hungry too, and his shaggy tail went...
Wag-wag, wag-wag, wag-wag.
Then she cut herself a big slice of sponge cake.
Mm-mm, scrumptious, she said.
But as she put the cake on the little table by the fire, Oggy Dog's shaggy tail went Wag-wag wag-wag, wag-wag.
Finally, she poured herself a lovely cup of tea.
Mmm, mmm, lovely, she said, as she put it on the little table by the fire.
Then, Oggy Dog barked with a woof, woof.
Oh, my poor Oggy Dog, she said.
I forgot all about you.
What shall we get Oggy for tea?
Oggy Dog looked longingly at the blue cupboard in the corner of the room because that was where Mother Hubbard kept his bones.
A bone, said Mother Hubbard, and Oggy Dog's tail wagged even more with a.
You wait here next to the little table by the fire, said Mother Hubbard, and I'll see what we've got.
So Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get poor Oggy a bone.
But when she got there...
Oggy's tail was waggling so much with a wag-wag wag-wag, wag-wag that his tail knocked the plate of cheese sandwiches onto the floor with a crash.
Slop!
Old Mother Hubbard turned round and said, Oh, Oggy Dog, what a splodgy mess!
She mopped up all the splodgy mess with a mop, mop, mop.
Then Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get poor Oggy a bone.
But when she got there, Oggy's tail was waggling so much with a... Wag, wag, wag, wag, wag, wag.
That he knocked the cake onto the floor too with a... Crash!
Splodge!
Old Mother Hubbard turned round and said, Oh, Oggy Dog, what a splodgy mess!
She mopped up all the splodgy mess with a mop, mop, mop.
Then, once again, Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get poor Oggy a bone.
But when she got there...
Oggy Dog's tail was waggling so much with a wag-wag wag-wag, wag-wag that this time he knocked the cup of tea onto the floor with a crash.
Splosh!
Old Mother Hubbard turned round and said, Oh, Oggy Dog, what a soggy mess!
She mopped up the soggy mess with a mop, mop, mop.
Then Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get poor Oggy a bone.
But when, at very long last, she eventually got there, she found the cupboard was bare.
Oh dear, Oggy Dog, she said.
There isn't a single bone left.
And do you know what?
Oggie Dog's tail stopped waggling at once.
Old Mother Hubbard smiled.
I know.
Let's go to the pizza place down the road for a special treat instead.
And once more, Oggie Dog's shaggy tail went wag wag, wag wag, wag wag.
They set off at once and as they went, Oggy Dog thought, I wonder if they do pizzas with bones on.
Here's a song about old Mother Hubbard and her dog.
Listen to the words and they'll remind you of the story.
Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to fetch her poor dog a bone.
But when she got there the cupboard was bare and so the poor dog had none.
She went to the fishmonger's To buy him some fish, But when she came back He was licking the dish.
She went to the grocer's To buy him some fruit, But when she came back He was playing the flute.
So old Mother Hubbard Went back to the cupboard To fetch her poor dog a bone, But when she got there The cupboard was bare And so the poor dog had none.
She went to the baker's to buy him some bread, but when she came back he didn't want to be fed.
So old Mother Hubbard went back to the cupboard to fetch her poor dog a bone.
And when she got there it was no longer bare, and so she gave her poor dog a bone.
I wonder if any of you know a dog like Oggy in our story, or whether you have dogs of your own at home.
You could talk about them together later.
Join me again soon, when we can listen and play together.
Bye!
