Strong Little One

A gentle acoustic folk song for the baby who hates tummy time - ten happy seconds are worth more than two minutes that end in tears.

Aderet Therapy Weekly is a weekly paediatric physiotherapy podcast for parents of babies and young children, made by Aderet Therapy in Campbelltown, in the Macarthur region of NSW. Each episode mixes short talk segments with original songs written for the week's topic. This is the song from episode 3, “How long should tummy time actually last?”.

Lyrics

Verse

You don't love it, and that's okay

We'll keep it short, we'll find a way

Ten happy seconds, then into my arms

Strong little one, with a thousand charms

Chorus

Strong little one, you're finding your might

A push and a wobble, you're doing it right

However you get there, whatever the door

You're strong, little one, right down to the core

Verse

Some days are easy, some days are steep

Some end in giggles and some end in weep

Either is fine, love, we're learning to grow

Slow as we need to, and gentle and slow

Chorus

Strong little one, you're finding your might

A push and a wobble, you're doing it right

However you get there, whatever the door

You're strong, little one, right down to the core

Outro

Strong little one

Right down to the core
