I can fold them together

and hold them just so!

Horsey, Horsey

Horsey, horsey on your way

We’ve been together for many a day

So let your tail go swish and your wheels go ‘round

Giddy up, we’re homeward bound.

I like to ride a horse and buggy

I like to ride all over town

I like to hear old Dobbin’s clip clop

I like to feel those wheels go ‘round.

Bend and stretch up so high

 Bend and stretch up so high,

Stand on tiptoe, touch the sky
(stretch and reach as high as you can)

Bend and stretch and see me grow,
(bend and stretch)

I'm so tall from head to toe!
(touch head and feet)

I put my arms up high

I put my arms up high
(raise arms over head)

I put my arms down low
(lower arms)

I put my arms real stiff
(Straighten out arms)

Then I let them go
(Drop arms to sides)

Quiet Time

We'll hop hop hop like a bunny
(make hopping motions)

We'll run run run like a dog
(make running motion)

We'll walk walk walk like an elephant
(make walking motions with arms)

And jump jump jump like a frog
(make jumping motion)

We'll swim swim swim like a goldfish
(make swimming motions with hand)

And fly fly fly like a bird
(make flying motions with arms)

We'll sit right down and fold our arms
(fold hands in lap)
And not say a word.

Blow, Wind, Blow

Blow, wind, blow
(move arms back and forth)
All through the town

Blow wind blow
(move arms around)

Up and down
(move arms up and down)

Blow, wind, blow
From the left to the right,
(move arms left to right)

Blow, wind, blow
All through the night.
(slowly lower arms)

We can Jump

We can jump, jump, jump

We can hop, hop, hop

We can clap, clap, clap,

We can stop, stop, stop,

We can stretch up both our arms,

We can reach and touch our toes,

We can bend our knees a little bit,

And sit down slow.

And wiggle and bend,

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle,

And that is the end!

What about the Kangaroo?

Crazy crabs walk sideways,
(move sideways)
What a giddy way to go !

Snails slip slide forwards
(move forward slowly)
And that is very slow !

Ducks waddle, waddle,

And that is funny too,
And what about the hopping
Of the big red kangaroo ?
(hop like a kangaroo)
