Movement Songs (with Egg Shakers)
Shake Your Shakers in the Air (tune: London Bridge)
Shake your shaker in the air,
Shake it here, shake it there.
Shake your shaker in the air,
Shake your shaker.
Shake it high and shake it low,
Shake it yes, shake it no.
Shake it high and shake it low,
Shake your shaker.
Shake it up and shake it down,
Rub your shaker on the ground.
Shake it up and shake it down,
Shake your shaker.
Shake it near and shake it far,
Drive your shaker like a car.
Shake it near and shake it far,
Shake your shaker.
Shake it fast and shake it slow,
Shake it stop, shake it go.
Shake it fast and shake it slow,
Shake your shaker.
