Songs to get you up and moving.
I’m a little tea pot short and stout.
I’m a little tea pot, short and stout.
Here is my handle, here is my spout.
When I get all steamed up, then I shout.
Tip me over and pour me out.
Hokey Pokey
You put your right arm in,
you take your right arm out,
you put your right arm in
and you shake it all about
you do the hokey pokey
and you turn your yourself around
thats what its all about
(for right arm, go to left arm, right leg, left leg, whole self for different verses)
Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
head, shoulders, knees and toes,
knees and toes
head, shoulders, knees and toes
knees and toes
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose
head shoulders knees and toes, knees and toes
Use these songs as a way to get kids moving after they have behaved for awhile doing a sit down activity such as story time, or craft time. They will enjoy it and you can do it with them.
