Ring Around the Rocket Ship

Tune: Ring around the rosie


Ring Around the Rocket Ship
(join hands and walk in circle)

Try to Grab a Star
(drop hands and reach up)

Stardust, stardust, fall where you are!
(fall to the floor)

Reach for the Stars

Bend and stretch, reach for the stars
There goes Jupiter, here comes Mars.
Bend and stretch, reach for the sky.
Stand on tippy toes, oh-so-high!

Ten Little Astronauts

Ten astronauts in a rocket ship
(Hold up fingers and touch both hands together at fingertips to make point of rocket )

Flying through space gonna make a little trip
(Keep point of rocket with hands and go back and forth)

Going past Mars and Jupiter, too!
Ten little astronauts, what a crew! 

(Hold up 10 fingers)

Space ship, Space ship, passing the stars in the sky, gleaming brightly see the comets go by.

Off we go into outer space
Off we go at a zipping pace,
Rockets are ready,
all things are steady.
Off to visit the moon.

Space ship, Space ship, passing the stars in the sky, gleaming brightly see the comets go by.

(fly hands upward)

If you want to take the trip,
Climb aboard my rocket ship
(pretend to climb imaginary ladder)

Zoom, zoom, zoom
(rub hands)

I'm going to the moon!
