Song (Recording): “Baby Beluga” – Raffi: Baby Beluga
with book  Baby Beluga by Raffi

Baby beluga in the deep blue sea
Swim so wild and you swim so free
Heaven above and the sea below
And a little white whale on the go

Baby beluga, baby beluga
Is the water warm
Is your mama home with you, so happy

Way down yonder where the dolphins play
Where you dive and splash all day
Waves roll in and the waves roll out
See the water squirtin’ out of your spout

Baby beluga, oh, baby beluga
Sing your little song
Sing for all your friends, we like to hear you

Baby beluga in the deep blue sea
Swim so wild and you swim so free
Heaven above and the sea below
And a little white whale on the go

Rhyme/Flannel: “Five Little Ocean Friends”
Five little ocean friends on the ocean floor,
The starfish walks away and now there are four

Four little ocean friends living in the sea
The crab slides away now there are three

Three little ocean friends looking for a clue
“Glub, glub,” said the lobster now there are two

Two little ocean friends not having much fun
Off swam the sea horse now there is one

One little octopus sad and all alone
Back swims the starfish, back swims the crab,
Back swims the lobster, back swims the sea horse
And they played in the sea foam, safe in their home.

Leg to the left, leg to the right
Wiggle and jiggle and pull them up tight

Baby put your pants on, pants on, pants on
Baby put your pants on, one, two, three
Baby put your pants on, pants on, pants on
Baby put your pants on, one, two, three!

Flannel: Red Mitten, Red Mitten, What Do You See?
Red mitten, red mitten, what do you see?
I see an orange mitten looking at me.

Orange mitten, orange mitten, what do you see?
I see a yellow mitten looking at me.

Song/Rhyme: “Snowflake, Snowflake” (Tune: “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”)
Snowflake, Snowflake, dance around,
Snowflake, snowflake, touch the ground,
Snowflake, landing on your nose,
Snowflake, landing on your toes,
Snowflake, Snowflake, dance around,
Snowflake, snowflake, touch the ground.

Song (Recording) with finger puppets: “Five Little Snowmen” – The Kiboomers (YouTube)
Five little snowmen standing in a row,
Each with a hat and a big red bow.
Out came the sun, and it stayed all day.
And one little snowman melted away.

Count down 4, 3, 2, 1

…And the one little snowman melted away.
Now all the little snowmen melted away!
