Up and down, up and down,
The waves in 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)
The crabs in the sea go back and forth… (move side to side)
The jellyfish in the sea go wibble, wobble, wibble… (wiggle)
Rhyme: “This Is Big”
This is big, big, big. (stretch hands far to sides)
This is small, small, small. (cup hands together)
This is short, short, short. (hold palms close vertically)
This is tall, tall, tall. (hold palms far apart vertically)
This is fast, fast, fast. (roll hands quickly)
This is slow, slow, slow. (roll hands slowly)
This is yes, yes, yes. (nod head)
This is no, no, no. (shake head)

Scarf Song: “We Wave Our Scarves Together”
We wave our scarves together,
We wave our scarves together,
We wave our scarves together
Because it’s fun to do.
Wave them up high,
Wave them down low,
Wave them in the middle
Because it’s fun to do.

Four corners has my scarf.
And if there weren’t four corners,
It would not be my…scarf.

My hat…
My blanket…
My cape…
My pillow…

In the pot. (make their scarves ‘disappear’ by bunching them up in their fists)
Shake them, shake them, shake them (shake fists)
