Hey I remember the Beans, beans are good for the heart, the more you eat the more you fart. It was very popular in York (UK) in the 1970s.
I liked rhymes that had hand gestures (no... nothing rude) like
Incey, wincey spider climbing up the spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
Incey, wincey spider climbed the spout again
or by linking the fingers of both hands so the fingers rest on the palm of the opposite hand
Here's the lady's knives and forks
then keeping your fingers linked turn your hands over so your knuckles face upwards
Here's the lady's table
then bring both index fingers upwards so the finger tips touch, leaving all the other fingers interlinked
Here's the lady's looking glass
then bring both little fingers upwards so the finger tips touch and rocking hands from side to side
Here's the baby's cradle
A similar rhyme using interlinked fingers went
Here's the church
Here's the steeple
Open the doors
See all the people
