Songs We Sing

Enter subhead content here

Song list 7/21 to 7/25/08

 

Monday: “Lets Go To The Beach”

(Sung to Row Your Boat)

Let’s go to the beach.

We’ll play and sing and run.

Let’s build some castles in the sand.

The day will be so fun!

 

 

Tuesday: “Ocean Roar”

(Sung to I’ve been working on the railroad)

Lets go swimming in the ocean

On a Summer day.

 

Lets go swimming in the ocean

We can kick and splash and play.

Let’s all go look for seashells.

 

I found three or four!

If you hold one up to your ear

You can hear the ocean roar!

 

Hear the ocean roar, hear the ocean roar,

Hear the ocean roar, and roar and roar!

Hear the ocean roar, hear the ocean roar,

Hear the ocean roar, and roar and roar!

 

Wednesday: “Aikin Drum”

I know a man who lives on the moon,

Lives on the moon,

In the moon,

In the moon.

There was a man who lives on the moon,

And his name is Aikin drum.

 

His eyes are made of Meat balls

Meat balls ,

Meat balls

Meat balls.

 

His eyes were made of meat balls

And his name is Aikin Drum

 

(you pick face part and kids pick the food for the rest of the song)

 

Thursday: “Movin’ Through Summer”

(Sung to Ring Around the Rosie)

 

Skipping, skipping, skipping

In the Summer sunshine,

Skipping, skipping,

We all fall down

 

(repeat with hopping, marching and running)

 

Friday: “Mr. Golden Sun"

Oh mister sun,

sun,

Mister golden sun (make a sun shape with both arms above head)

Please shine down on me (wiggle fingers over face)

Oh mister sun, sun

Mister golden sun (make a sun shape with both arms above head)

Hiding behind a tree (put both hands together in front of face and peek out)

These little children are asking you (point to each child)

To come out side so we can play with you

Oh mister sun, sun

Mister golden sun (make a sun shape with both arms above head)

Please shine down on- (wiggle fingers over face for the rest of the song)

Please shine down on-

Please shine down on me!
