Hawkins Hollow Nursery Rhymes
Button Farm Stand Hello Rhyme B
“Hello, hello—one, two, three.” The actual engine is notice → greet → count → choose. Lex models one calm hello; Brandon answers with a wave. At the next stop, Lex counts three berries in one basket while Brandon remains nearby and leaves open space. The child may choose a kind next step—say or gesture “Hello”—or a silly next step—make a tiny “berry-bop-bee.”
Rhyme
Button Farm Stand Hello
Maple Hollow—tap, tap, start;
Lex said, “Hello,” calm and clear.
Brandon answered with a wave;
Friendly greetings can be brave.
Garden shed—one, two, three;
Three red berries—one, two, three.
Lex counted once; Brandon stood near;
Both left room for helpers here.
Listening stump—what shall we choose?
Say “Hello,” or tap our shoes—
Or whisper silly, “Berry-bop-bee!”
One kind greeting, soft and free.
Orchard leaves made hello sounds;
Make-believe echoes skipped around.
Hello, hello—one, two, three;
A friendly word can travel gently.
