Notes

We found this rhyme in Aki Yerushalayim, a magazine dedicated to the Sephardic culture and folklore.

Game Instructions

You touch or lightly squeeze the baby's fingers starting with the pinkie. At the end, you run your fingers up the baby's arm to his neck to tickle him.

The document on which we found the rhyme doesn't mention if the 2nd verse is played like the 1st but the pinkie should be the one wanting to go to grandma since he's the smallest. The 2nd verse should begin with the thumb.
