It's summer party season and we've had a run of birthday parties in the family. This old playground skipping song makes a great party song for knee-bouncing babies and little toddlers and for general leaping about excitedly for the bigger ones. They can wibble wobble, shake themselves, stamp out the 'fire' and blow out the candles on the cake. It's a very energetic knee-bouncer for the little ones, who love the wibble wobbles but who also enjoy the gentle ending, when you blow out the 'candles', aiming your puff at their hair. Kevin Graal performs it with sounds added by Stephen Chadwick and illustrations by Rachel Fuller.
