And I'm sharing it with all of you! Please feel free to use, and if you have any suggested changes to improve it, I'd love to read them.

It's to the tune of "V'samachta" -- the chassidish/Chabad one with the "ay yi yi" part in it.

I wanted something less wordy than most of the options out there. You can have the kids hold their hands out for "What did H" make", and hold up the right number of fingers for each day. You can either teach them then words to the answers, or teach them the question, and then you do the answers, depending on their ages and abilities.

What did H" make
On Day One?
Y'hi or, let there be light

What did H" make
On Day Two?
Shamayim and mayim, you got it right.

Ay yi yi...

What did H" make
On Day 3?
Land and water, and the plants that grow

What did H" make
On Day 4?
Sun, moon, stars; their light did glow.

Ay yi yi...

What did H" make
On Day 5?
Bugs and birds and fish in the blue

What did H" make
On Day 6?
Animals, Adam, and Chava too.

Ay yi yi...

[slower and quieter]
What did H" make
On Day 7?
I know, you know, cause we love it best;

H" made Shabbos,
Shabbos kodesh
Our special day of rest.

Ay yi yi...
