Little girls "clapping" games - Does anyone remember the rhymes?

I am trying to remember all the rhymes we used to say when "clapping" hands with one another as primary school girls!  Does anyone remember any of them?

All I can remember is the last part of one about "ending up with a bellly ache"!!???  how does it go?

Re: Little girls

 Ahh so much fun!  My kids are currently doing this one

Lemonade 
Crunchy ice 
Sip it once (Up Down Clap) 
Sip it twice (Up Down Clap) 
Lemonade (Up Down Clap) 
Crunchy Ice (Up Down Clap) 
Made it once (Up Down Clap) 
Made it twice (Up Down Clap) 
Turn around (Turn around) 
Touch the ground (Touch the ground) 
Kick your boyfriend out of town! 
Freeze!

Another variation can be played as a group:

Beat it once, beat it twice.

Beat it once, beat it twice. 
Turn around, touch the ground, FREEZE.

Here is one I didn't see on the list;

Down down baby down by the roller coaster
Sweet sweet baby, I'll never let you go
Shimmy shimmy coco puff
Shimmy shimmy rock
Shimmy shimmy coco puff
Shimmy shimmy rock
Grandma, grandma, sick in bed
I called the doctor and the doctor said:
Let's get the rhythm of the head - ding dong (x2)
Let's get the rhythm of the hands - (clap clap)(x2)
Let's get the rhythm of the feet - (stomp stomp) (x2)
Let's get the rhythm of the hot dog
Let's get the rhythm of the hot dog
Put it all together and what do you get
Ding dong (clap clap) (stomp stomp) hot dog
Put it all backward and what do you get
Hot dog, (Stomp, stomp), (clap, clap), ding dong.

Say, Say, Oh Playmate

Say, say, oh playmate
Come out and play with me.
Bring out your dollies three.
Climb up my apple tree.
Slide down my rainbow
Into my cellar door.
And we'll be jolly friends
Forevermore, one, two, three, four!

Say, say, oh playmate
I cannot play with you
My dollies have the flu
Boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
My apple tree is dead
My rainbow's gone away
My cellar door is locked
Forevermore, one, two, three, four!

Miss Susie
Miss Susie had a baby,
She named him Tiny Tim
She put him in the bathtub,
To see if he could swim
He drank up all the water,
He ate up all the soap,
He tried to eat the bathtub
But it wouldn’t go down his throat.
Miss Susie called the doctor,
Miss Susie called the nurse,
Miss Susie called the lady,
With the alligator purse
In came the doctor,
In came the nurse,
In came the lady,
With the alligator purse
Mumps said the doctor,
Measles said the nurse,
Hiccups said the lady
With the alligator purse
Miss Susie punched the doctor,
Miss Susie kicked the nurse,
Miss Susie thanked the lady
With the alligator purse

and of course the "good" version:

Miss Susie
Miss Suzie had a steamboat
The steamboat had a bell
Miss Suzie went to heaven
The steamboat went to
Hello operator
Please give me number nine
If you disconnect me
I'll kick you from
Behind the refrigerator there was a piece of glass
Miss Suzie sat upon it and cut her little
Ask me no more questions
Tell me no more lies
The boys are in the bathroom zipping up their
Flies are in the meadow
The bees are in the park
Miss Suzie and her boyfriend are kissing in the
Dark is like a movie
A movie's like a show
A show is like a TV screen
And that is all I know

One that I remember, a little naughty tho (I went to an all girls Catholic School)

Boys are...

Boys are cheats and liars, they're such a big disgrace
they will tell you anything to get to second
base--ball, baseball he thinks he's gonna score
if you let him go all the way, then you are a
hor--ticulturist studies flowers, geologist studies rocks
the only thing he wants from you is a place to put his
cock--roaches, beetles, butterflies and bugs
nothing makes him happier than a giant pair of
jug--glers and acrobats and a dancing bear named chuck
all guys really want to do is--forget it, no such luck.

Enjoy...Leisa

Re: Little girls
Hi
The one you are looking for is I think

My boyfriends name is Tony
He is so very bony
He has ten toes and a pickle for his nose
And this is what he said to me
I L.O.V.E love you
I K.I. Double S kiss you
He jumped in the lake and
swallowed a snake
and came home with a belly ache.

On belly ache we used to see who could poke who in the stomach the fastest.

One from my daughter is

My boyfriend gave me an apple
My boyfriend gave me a pear
My boyfriend gave me a kiss on the lips
And threw me down the stairs
I gave him back his apple
I gave him back his hair
I gave him back his kiss on the lips
And threw him down the stairs.
I threw him over London
I threw him over France
I threw him over Timbuktu
Where he lost his underpants
I searched all over London
I searched all over France
I searched all over Timbuktu
And found his underpants.

Luv Deb

Re: Little girls "clapping games"

Thankyou, BlackWidowKate!

This is the one!

My daughter is only 3 but she loves any sort of interaction and the clapping thing I started with "Pat-a-cake" with the simple 2 hands together / clap/ etc etc but couldn't get the "belly ache" off my mind.  I even remember doing with certain friends and wonder where they are now? 

what about all the other games we used to play - like the tricks with the wool in a loop, ELASTICS!, single rope skipping, double dutch skipping rhymes!  i have forgotten all of them!

Re: Little girls
In this one you sort of salute with your hand over your eye, when you say sea, you sort of chop your opposite arm when you say chop, you tap your knee when you say knee, tap your toe when you say toe (3x each).  In between you just do the normal clapping thing together...

A sailor went to sea sea sea, to see what he could sea sea sea, but all that he could sea sea sea, was the bottom of the deep blue sea sea sea.
A sailor went to chop chop chop etc.
A sailor went to knee knee knee etc.
A sailor went to toe toe toe etc.
A sailor went to sea chop knee toe etc.

Jaydee seems to enjoy it, though he has trouble with it... Looking at in writing I'm like what the???

Also

Peas porridge hot, peas porridge cold, peas porridge in the pot 5 days old... 

Do the clapping thing to it, and at the end of it each time you jump with your legs out a bit wider and the winner is the one who stays standing with their legs out the widest.
