A gentle and simple lullaby for babies. One that can be used during tummy time, nappy changing or even to lead them into sleep.
FOCUS AREAS: [low frequency vibration] [calming]

One song, many ways:
- Can be sung softly, rocked from side to side.
- Older babies and toddlers: Can they hold their own "baby" (doll or toy) that they can rock as well while you sing the song together?
- Low frequency vibration: Can you hum the song? You can hum the song while resting your cheek against the child's cheek to transfer the vibrations. This helps activating the child's vagus nerve and brings them back into the calm alert state.
Lyrics:
Bye bye baby, baby bye.
My little baby, baby bye.
