Opening Songs

First Book

Walrus in the Bathtub, by Deborah Underwood and Ill by Matt Hut

Movement Song: The Waves in the Ocean
The waves in the ocean go up and down,
Up and down, up and down,
The waves in the ocean go up and down
All day long.

Additional verses:
The sharks in the ocean goes chomp, chomp, chomp…
The fish in the ocean go swish, swish, swish…
The boats in the ocean go toot, toot, toot…
The jellies in the ocean go jiggle, jiggle, jiggle…
The clams in the ocean go open and shut…

Movement: Wiggles
My right foot has the wiggles, my right foot has the wiggles,
My right food has the wiggles & I tell it now to STOP.
I’m trying to sit here nicely, I’m trying to sit here nicely
I’m trying to sit here nicely, but my left foot wants to BOP.

My left foot has the wiggles, my left foot has the wiggles,
My left foot has the wiggles, & I tell it now to STOP.
I’m trying to sit here nicely, I’m trying to sit here nicely
I’m trying to sit here nicely, but my left hand wants to BOP.

My left hand has the wiggles, my left hand has the wiggles,
My left hand has the wiggles, & I tell it now to STOP.
I’m trying to sit here nicely, I’m trying to sit here nicely
I’m trying to sit here nicely, but my right hand wants to BOP.

My right hand has the wiggles, my right hand has the wiggles,
My right hand has the wiggles & I tell it now to STOP.
I’m trying to sit here nicely, I’m trying to sit here nicely
I’m trying to sit here nicely, but my whole body wants to BOP.
