Round and Round the Garden” is a popular nursery rhyme and children’s game. The rhyme often accompanies a hand actions or a tickling game that parents or caregivers can play with young children.
The game typically involves using your fingers to walk in a circular motion on the child’s palm or body and ending with a gentle tickle, often under the child’s chin or armpit. It’s a playful, interactive way to entertain children and often brings smiles and giggles.
The origins of nursery rhymes can be difficult to trace, and they often have a long oral tradition before being recorded in written form.
Lyrics for Round and Round The Garden
Round and round the garden,
Like a teddy bear.
One step, two steps,
Tickle you under there.
Out in the garden,
Sat a little hare.
The bow-wows came,
And chased him right up there.
Round and round the race course,
Catch a little hare.
One step, two steps,
Tickle you under there.
