Lay the infant on a blanket or other soft surface. Take the infant's legs and bend them gently so the knees come close to the stomach. Stretch the legs out again. Quietly sing this song to the tune of "London Bridge":
Bend your knees and stretch your legs,
stretch your legs, stretch your legs.
Bend your knees and stretch your legs,
I see a happy boy (girl).
