Let's go to the Beach

To tune of: A Hunting we will go!

Let's go to the beach
To swim and play and run.
Building castles in the sand
Is ever so much fun.

We'll fix a picnic lunch
And eat it when we like.
And when we all are nice and full
We'll take a nature hike.

 

Be sure to wear your suit
And bring along your float.
We'll ride so far out in the surf
Pretending it's a boat.

We'll find some pretty shells
And throw the gulls some bread.
Put on a lot of suntan oil
So that we don't turn red.

We'll never want to leave.
Such fun this all has been.
But we'll come back another day
And do it all again!

The Beach

To tune of: London Bridge

We are going to the beach,
to the Beach, to the beach,
We are going to the beach,
in our bathing suits.

We will find there rocks and shells,
Rocks and shells, Rocks and Shells.
We will find there rocks and shells,
to gather by the water.

We will build a sand castle,
Sand castle, sand castle,
we will build a sand castle,
with bridges and a tower.

We will have a picnic too,
picnic too, picnic too,
We will have a picnic too,
With Sandwiches and oranges.

Home we head with Sunburned Cheeks,
Sunburned Cheeks, Sunburned Cheeks,
Home we head with sunburned Cheeks,
and treasures from our visit.

Little Color Fish

Five little fishes swimming near the shore,
The red snapper took a bite and then there were four.
Four little fishes swimming in the sea,
The orange roughy swam away and then there were three.
Three little fishes in the ocean blue,
The pink salmon took a seahorse ride and then there were two.
Two little fishes, swimming in the sun,
The yellow perch swam too far and then there was one.
One little blue marlin, now you're all alone,
I'll put you in my fish bowl and take you home.

Did you ever see a Fishy?

To tune of: Did you ever see a Lassie?

Did you ever see a fishy,
A fishy, a fishy?
Did you ever see a fishy
Swim this way and that?
Swim this way and that way
And that way and this way?
Did you ever see a fishy
Swim this way and that?

Sandcastle Song

To tune of: Frere Jacques

Make a sand cake,
Make a castle
In the sand,
In the sand.
Pouring, measuring, digging,
Pouring, measuring, digging
Just feels grand
Just feels grand.

Sand

To the Tune of: Frere Jacques

Sand is gritty,
Sand is gritty,
At the beach,
At the beach.
Sand is many tiny rocks
Broken down from bigger rocks,
At the beach,

At the beach.

Sandcastle Song

Tune: Are you sleeping?

Make a castle 
Make a castle 
In the sand, in the sand 
Pouring, measuring, digging 
Pouring, measuring, digging 
Sure feels grand, sure feels grand

Super Sandcastle

Pat-a-cake, Pat-a-cake,
(clap your hands)

Playing in the sand
(keep clapping)

We're building up a castle
(keep clapping)

As fast as we can
(keep clapping)

Scoop it and pat it
(pretend to scoop and pat sand)

Then flip it - be quick!
(pretend to flip bucket over)

Lift up the bucket
(pretend to lift the bucket)

What a nifty trick!

Five Little Seashells

Five little seashells sleeping on the shore
(Hold up 5 fingers, bending down one for each verse.)

Swish! went a big wave, and then there were four.
(Move arms, palms up, to make the waves.)
Four little seashells quiet as can be

Swish! went a big wave, and then there were three.
Three little seashells pearly and new
Swish! went a big wave, and then there were two.


Two little seashells having great fun
Swish! went a big wave, and then there was one.

One little seashell lying in the sun
Swish! went a big wave, and then there were none.

Five little seashells gone out to sea,
(Point out to sea.)
Wait until morning and they'll return to me.
(Point to self.)

Seashell

Holding up a seashell
(hold fist tightly to ear)
Tightly to my ear.

Shh! It's telling me a secret
(Other hand holds finger to lips),
That only I can hear!
