Rootling through bric-a-brac in a charity shop, I found a box full of clocks in all different shapes and sizes.
Nowadays most clocks are phones and they don't tick, so here's a knee-bouncing reminder of what they used to sound like.
Sway baby from side to side on the first of each pair of lines, then knee bounce on the ticks and tocks.
On 'cuckoo' lift baby right up into the air. The last line is a slide to the floor and a Jack-in-the-box spring up into the air, when all those springs come boinging out of the box.
A box of clocks goes
TICK……TOCK……TICK……TOCK, (big, slow bounces)
A box of clocks goes
