Instructions
1. As the children gather on their mats for rest time, quietly sing the following
song to the tune of the "Farmer in the Dell." Sing each verse more slowly and
more quietly.
It's time to take a rest.
It's time to take a rest.
It's the time that we like best.
It's time to take a rest.
I lie down on my mat.
I lie down on my mat.
I close my eyes and take a rest.
I lie down on my mat.
I close my eyes and dream.
I close my eyes and dream.
I dream of happy, happy things.
I close my eyes and dream.
