Ocean Motion

(Act out the motions of the ocean)

Let's make the motion of the ocean!

Jiggle like a jelly fish

Creep like a sea snail

Soar like an eagle

Wiggle like an eel

Float like a sea otter

Bark like a seal

Walk forward, backward, and sideways like a crab

Mr. Lobster and Mrs. Crab

Mr. Lobster and Mrs. Crab

Pinch and snap all day

Mr. Lobster and Mrs. Crab

Pinch and snap all day

With a pinch, pinch here

and a snap, snap there

Here a pinch, there a snap

Everywhere a pinch,pinch

(snap, snap)

Mr. Lobster and Mrs. Crab pinch and snap all day.

Take me out to the Ocean

Take me out to the ocean, 
Take me out to the sea, 
There goes a starfish and sand dollar, 
I'm having such fun, 
I've just got to holler 
Oh, it's swim, swim, swim, underwater 
Catch a ride on a whale, 
Don't fear, For the sea animals are our friends 
Let's give a great big cheer! 
 
Take me out to the ocean,
Take me out there right now.
Show me the sand and some sea shells, too.
I hear a seagull and boat that goes toot.
There are surfers riding the big waves.
And, I'm glad that I came.
Oh, it's one, two, three; build a castle
At the ocean today.
 
Take me out to the ocean
Take me out to the sea
Show me the foamy waves rolling there
As I breathe in the salty sea air
Let me swim, swim, swim in the ocean
See the sea and explore
Cause its so much fun from the sun
To the ocean floor!
 
Take me out to the ocean.
Take me out to the sea.
Show me the foamy waves rolling there,
As I breathe in the salty sea air!
Let me look, look, look at the ocean,
See the sea and explore,
For it's fun to dive from the top
To the ocean floor!
 
Take me out to the ocean,
Take me out to the sea.
Show me the currents and ocean tides!
Let me see where the seaweed resides!
When you look, look, look at the ocean,
Look at all it is worth!
For the ocean covers three-fourths
Of the entire earth!

Here are the Waves

Here are the waves, the waves in the sea
(Make wave motion with arms)

Here is the boat
(Cup hand to make boat)

And here is me
(With other hand, place finger in boat)

All the fishes down below
(wiggle fingers beneath the boat)

Wiggle their tails and away they go
(wiggle fingers then hide hands behind your back)

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!

Five Perky Penguins

Five perky Penguins,
Stood on the shore.
One went for a swim,
And then there were four.

Four Perky penguins,
Looked out to sea.
One went swimming,
And then there were three.

Three perky penguins,
"What can we do?"
One jumped in the water,
And then there were two.

Two perky penguins,
Sat in the sun.
One swam off,
And then there was one.

One perky penguin said,
"This is no fun!'
He dived in the water,
And then there was none.

Here is the Sea

Here is the Sea, the wavy sea
(wave hands from side to side)

Here is my boat,
(cup hands like a boat)

And here is me
(point to self)

All of the fishes
(wiggle your fingers)

Down below
(point downwards)

Wiggle their tails
(wiggle your fingers)

And way they go.
(wiggle your fingers behind your back)

Waves in the Sea

(To the Tune of: Wheels on the Bus)

The waves on the sea go up and down,
(raise and lower arms)

Up and down, up and down,

The waves on the sea go up and down

All day long

The shark in the sea goes snap snap snap..
(clap your hands)

The fish in the sea go swish swish swish..
(swish back and forth)

The boats in the sea go toot toot toot...
(make blowing horn motion)
