Penguins Everywhere!

Here are the songs we are working on as we learn about Penguins!

Six little penguins

Six little penguins off an iceberg did dive,
One bumped his beak, then there were five.

Five little penguins swam the ocean floor,
One saw a whale, then there were four.

Four little penguins spun around, whee-ee!
One spun off, then there were three!

Three little penguins, with nothing to do,
One went fishing, then there were two.

Two little penguins, having lots of fun,
One fell of, then there was one.
One little penguin, when the day was done,
Went home to sleep, then there were none.

I Know a Little Penguin Sung to: "I'm a little teapot"

I know a little penguin
Who sat on some blocks
He swam in the ocean
And he Climbed on some rocks
He snapped at a seagull

He snapped at a seal
He snapped at a fish
Oh, what a meal!

Along with songs, I found a really cute, fun story that we tell at circle time. I have included the link so you can watch it with your child! It is animated and read by Whoppi Goldburg.

Rumble, Grumble, Gurgle, ROAR!

Christmas Songs

We are getting ready for our little Christmas performance! Here are some songs you may hear-

Santa's Hammers

Santa works with one hammer, one hammer, one hammer.
Santa works with one hammer, then he works with two!
...then he works with three!
...then he works with four!
...then he works with  five!

They progress with hand movements starting with one hand to leg, then both hands then a foot stomps and then a jump for both feel and then five hammers included a head! I think you might have to see it to get it!

Santa's Coming
(tune of Frere Jacques)
Santa's Coming, Santa's coming!
Sleigh bells ring, sleigh bells ring!
It is Christmas Eve! It is Christmas Eve!
Ding, Ding, Dong. Ding, Ding, Dong!

Songs from the Class

With all our snowman talk this week, we have two new songs to share with you!

Snowman Hokey Pokey (to the tune of the Hokey pokey).

You put your snowman up, you put your snowman down,
You put your snowman up and you shake him all around.
You do the snowman pokey and you turn your self around,
That's what it's all about!

You put your snowman in front
You put your snowman in back,
You put your snowman in front and you give your knee a whack.
You do the snowman pokey and you turn your self around,
That's what it's all about!

You touch your snowman to your head,
You touch your snowman to your toe,
You touch your snowman to your head and you shake it to and fro,
You do the snowman pokey and your turn your self around,
That's what it's all about!.

The Snowman
A chubby little snowman had a carrot for a nose
Along came a bunny and what do you suppose?
That hungry little bunny was looking for his lunch...
And he ATE that snowman's nose. .nibble nibble. .CRUNCH
