I used my door from Five Little Birds, and my kizclub.com family from Knock, Knock! and wrote this song about relatives coming to visit, and how we might greet each one. The tune is London Bridge.
Begin each verse by pretending to knock on a door.
Who is knocking at my door, at my door, at my door?
Who is knocking at my door, at my door, at my door?
Who is knocking at my door?
Look! It’s Mommy.
Let’s give Mom a great big kiss, great big kiss, great big kiss.
Let’s give Mom a great big kiss.
Goodbye, Mommy!
Goodbye, Mommy!
Pause each time you sing the word kiss to blow a kiss.
Who is knocking at my door, at my door, at my door?
Who is knocking at my door?
Look! It’s Daddy.
Let’s give Dad a great big hug, great big hug, great big hug.
Let’s give Dad a great big hug.
Goodbye, Daddy!
For this one, adults can hug the kids in their laps, or kids can hug themselves.
Who is knocking at my door, at my door, at my door?
Who is knocking at my door?
Look! It’s Grandma.
Let’s give Grandma a great big smile, great big smile, great big smile.
Let’s give Grandma a great big smile.
Goodbye, Grandma!
It's tricky to smile and sing, but they get a kick out of trying. I also put my fingers up to the sides of my mouth to show I'm smiling.
Goodbye, Grandma!

Who is knocking at my door, at my door, at my door?
Who is knocking at my door?
Look! It’s Grandpa.
Let’s give Grandpa a great big wave, great big wave, great big wave.
Let’s give Grandma a great big wave. Goodbye, Grandpa!
Wave in a big exaggerated motion.
Wave in a big exaggerated motion.
Who is knocking at my door, at my door, at my door?
Who is knocking at my door.
Look! It’s my family.
Let’s tell everyone I love you, I love you, I love.
Let’s tell everyone I love you.
I love my family!
Make the ASL sign for I love you, which my groups know from our version of Wheels on the Bus.
