Cozy Barn Step Song 035
One step, two steps—hands go slow. Look, then lift; know where to go. Hold it steady, wait, then share. Careful hands can help us there. Song promise: Kaydence and Alice count, pause, and hand over one small orchard basket without rushing.
Lyrics
Kaydence hears the apples rustle.
Alice sees one basket near.
Kaydence asks, “Shall we move it?”
Alice says, “Let’s check it here.”
One step, two steps—hands go slow.
Look, then lift; know where to go.
Hold it steady, wait, then share.
Careful hands can help us there.
At the pond edge, both stop walking.
Alice checks the path ahead.
Kaydence holds the basket steady.
“Clear and dry,” is what she says.
One step, two steps—hands go slow.
Look, then lift; know where to go.
Hold it steady, wait, then share.
Careful hands can help us there.
White clouds drift like fluffy footsteps.
Oak leaves count the breeze out loud.
Make-believe barn steps cross the sunlight,
then fade underneath a cloud.
Underneath the old oak branch,
Kaydence offers one basket handle.
Alice waits until it is still,
then takes hold with both her hands.
One step, two steps—hands go slow.
Look, then lift; know where to go.
Hold it steady, wait, then share.
Careful hands can help us there.
Patience Tag
Stop and check. Make room for waiting.
Pass one thing when both are set.
Some good work takes one more moment.
We can choose to wait or rest.
