Song: “Zoom, Zoom, Zoom”
Zoom, zoom, zoom,
We’re going to the moon.
Zoom, zoom, zoom,
We’re going to the moon.
If you want to take a trip
climb aboard my rocket ship.
Zoom, zoom, zoom,
We’re going to the moon.
In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,
Blast off!

Flannel: “Bookworm, Bookworm”
Bookworm, bookworm, hiding in a book
Bookworm, bookworm, where should we look?
Bookworm, are you in the (insert color) book?
Repeat until the bookworm is found.

Song: “If You’re Happy and You Know It” – Imaginary creature edition
If you’re a dragon and you know it, blow some fire…
If you’re a unicorn and you know it, prance around…
If you’re a monster and you know it, show your teeth…
If you’re a mermaid and you know it, swish your tail…
Book: Off-Limits by Helen Yoon
Song: “I’m a Little Teapot”
I’m a little teapot
Short and stout.
Here is my handle,
Here is my spout.
When I get all steamed up,
Hear me shout,
“Tip me over and pour me out!”
Song: “All the Fish” – Sue Schnitzer: Wiggle and Whirl, Clap and Nap
Verses:
All the fish are swimming in the water…
All the ducks are quacking in the water…
All the frogs are hopping in the water…
All the alligators are snapping in the water…
All the seagulls are flying over the water…
All the children are swimming in the water…
