In a Cottage

To make this song a bit more interesting, we sing it through a few times.
The first time sing it all the way through
Second time don't sing the first line, just do the actions
Third time, don't sing the first two lines, just the actions
Fourth time, miss out the first three line ... and so on until the song is silent and just the actions are being done.

WORDS ACTIONS
