The Bath Time Song: If You're Dirty and You Know It!

Emma and Joey had a fantastic time playing outside on a rainy day, but now they've tracked muddy footprints all over the house! When Mom tells them it's time to wash up, they aren't too thrilled at first. But getting clean doesn't have to be a chore! Join Mom as she turns scrub-a-dub time into play time. Sing along to this catchy tune to learn about washing your face, hands, and toes. Plus, there's a cozy cup of hot chocolate waiting at the end of the bath!



Lyrics

If you’re dirty and you know it
take a bath
Splash! Splash!

If you’re dirty and you know it
take a bath
Splash! Splash!

If you’re dirty and you know it
and you really want to clean it
If you’re dirty and you know it
take a bath!

if you’re dirty and you know it
clean your face, clean your face!

If you’re dirty and you know it
clean your face, close your eyes!

If you’re dirty and you know it
and you really want to clean it

If you’re dirty and you know it
clean your face!

If you’re dirty and you know it
clean your hands and nails!

If you’re dirty and you know it
clean your hands and nails!

If you’re dirty and you know it
clean your feet and toes!

If you’re dirty and you know it
clean your feet and toes!

If you’re dirty and you know it
and you really want to clean it!

If you’re dirty and you know it
take a bath!!

Why Parents and Teachers Love This Song

● Turns Resistance into Fun: Toddlers often resist transitions, especially bath time. Using a familiar, upbeat melody (based on "If You're Happy and You Know It") turns a stressful routine into a fun, musical game.
● Teaches Body Awareness: The lyrics specifically call out different body parts (face, hands, nails, feet, toes), helping young children build their vocabulary and spatial awareness.
● Encourages Independence: By singing "clean your hands and nails," children are prompted to mimic the actions and take an active role in their own personal hygiene.

An activity graphic for the show Emma and Joey, noting they were '(Formerly Beep Beep)'. The headline reads 'Wash the Muddy Toys!'. The main photograph shows a child's hands holding a mud-speckled, pink toy pig and using a yellow sponge to scrub it clean over a blue tub filled with soapy water and bubbles. At the bottom, a 'Before' label sits next to an image of a muddy black-and-white toy cow, with a blue arrow pointing to an 'After' label showing the same toy cow completely clean. A small shield icon at the bottom center indicates '(Parental Guidance)'

Activity: "Wash the Muddy Toys" Sensory Bin

● How to play: Fill one plastic bin with soapy water and a sponge, and another with a small amount of washable brown paint, chocolate pudding, or actual clean mud. Let the kids get a few plastic, waterproof toys (like farm animals or building blocks) completely "muddy." Then, have them move the toys into the soapy bathtub bin to scrub them sparkling clean while singing the Bath Time Song!
● Visual Reference: A picture of a child's hands holding a soapy sponge, scrubbing a brown, "mud-covered" plastic toy pig inside a small plastic tub filled with fluffy white bubbles.
