Overwhelmingly the blog readers voted Pat-a-Cake as their favorite nursery rhyme. Surprisingly, Mama and Daddy know different versions of the song. Mama sings, “pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man, bake me a cake as fast as you can, pat it, and roll it, and mark it with a “B” then put it in the oven for baby and me!” Daddy’s version starts the same way but ends differently. Daddy sings, “pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker’s man, bake me a cake as fast as you can, roll in up and through it in a pan.” Our baby book lists Sandy’s version, but we noticed Carol singing Dave’s version. It could be a regional difference, but it makes no difference to the twins who love the song either way.
