Everything you need to teach hand clapping rhymes to the next generation.
Have you had these thoughts?
- You remember playing hand clapping games on the playground as a child, but don't remember the rhymes or clapping patterns.
- You lack the time to research hand clapping rhymes and find appropriate videos that teach them.
- You wonder how to modify hand clapping patterns for different skill levels.
Hand Clapping Fun was created for parents and grandparents of elementary-aged children to help you teach clapping rhymes to the next generation.
Why not just search YouTube?
You can find all of these hand clapping games on YouTube for free.
But you'll spend hours searching and previewing them because not all videos are appropriate. (I've been shocked at some of the hand clapping games videos on YouTube channels!)
Plus, it can be a challenge to figure out the clapping pattern and how to fit that pattern to the words of the rhyme. The special guitar-chord type PDF makes learning the rhyme and clapping pattern easier.
Your investment in Hand Clapping Fun will save you time and decrease the frustration of learning something new.

Designed for Busy Parents
When my daughters were six and nine, we saw a video of children doing a hand clapping rhyme.
It looked so fun we wanted to learn it too! I remembered doing hand clapping rhymes as a child but not well enough to teach them to my children.
So we watched the video over and over and over. But it wasn't easy to learn by just watching the video. The children in the video went too fast, and it was challenging to figure out which words went with which motions.
Eventually, we figured it out and had a great time learning the rhyme together.
We wanted to learn more rhymes, so I searched YouTube, and I was shocked at what I saw! Some of the videos were helpful. Some were very inappropriate. There was no way I wanted to turn my children over to YouTube to learn the rhymes.
That’s why I created Hand Clapping Fun.
I decided to identify hand clapping rhymes to learn with my children. I researched and searched all over the Internet. I made a list of the most common rhymes as well as some not so well-known rhymes.
Once I had my list of rhymes to learn, I set about teaching them to myself. I wrote out the words to the rhyme and wrote short-hand notes under each word of which hand clapping motion accompanied that word.
The result looked a lot like a guitar chord chart, and it was much easier to teach the rhymes to my children.
Since I wanted to make the most of learning the rhymes, I made a few changes.
- I changed a few of the words. Have you been shocked at what you said and watched as a child? Me too! I wanted to teach my daughters rhymes they would be comfortable teaching to their children.
- Hand clapping rhymes provide an excellent opportunity to practice crossing the midline, bilateral coordination, hand-eye coordination, and more. I modified the motions to incorporate these skills more.
I enjoyed watching my daughters learn these rhymes.
They gained confidence as they taught the rhymes to their friends.
They learned how to cooperate with each other.
Playing hand clapping games together strengthened their relationship.
Now you can teach hand clapping rhymes to your children and watch a similar transformation take place in your home!
