Song: “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,

You’ll throw your scarf…
You’ll twirl with your scarf…
You’ll shake your scarf…

Song: “If You’re Happy and You Know It”

If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you’re happy and you know it,
Then your face will surely show it.
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.

If you’re angry and you know it, stomp your feet,
If you’re scared and you know it, hide your eyes.
