Tommy Thumb is Up

A fingerplay song similar to "Where is Thumbkin", helping children learn to isolate finger movements. The character of Tommy Thumb and associated fingerplays have roots in early collections of nursery rhymes from the 18th century, with "Tommy Thumb's Pretty Song Book" published in London in 1744 being the earliest extant anthology of English nursery rhymes. The fingerplay involves engaging each finger (Tommy Thumb, Peter Pointer, Toby Tall, Ruby Ring, Baby Small) with specific actions, aiding in the development of coordination and muscle control in children.
