“I’ve Got a Song in My Tummy” by Laurie Berkner
I’ve got a song in my tummy and it wants to come out,
I’ve got a song in my tummy
I’ve got a song in my tummy and it wants to come out,
I’ve got a song in my tummy
I’ve got a song in my tummy and it wants to come out,
And when it does, I’m gonna sing and shout
La la la la, la la la la la…..
I’ve got a song in my tummy.

“Mood Groove” by Julie Avirett
We’re doing our mood, mood groove, doo doo doo doo doo
Cause I have so many feelings
Come on and join our groove.
Some days I’m happy
Some days I’m happy
When I’m happy I like to laugh, “Haa haa haa Haa haa haa.”
Some days I feel sad
Some days I feel so sad
When I’m sad, I cry, “Boo hoo, Boo hoo.” Repeat Chorus
Other days I’m silly
Other days I’m silly
When I’m silly I make a funny sound, “Bliop, bliop.” Repeat Chorus
Other days I worry
Other days I worry
When I worry I frown, “Oh no, Oh no!” Repeat Chorus
And some days I get real mad
Some days I get stomp’n mad
When I’m mad I like to yell, “Ahh Ahh.” Repeat Chorus
Come and join our groove.
“Move Your Scarves” by Jenn Batey
Move your scarves up and down, up and down, in the air
Make a circle, make a circle, make a circle in the air
Throw your scarves, higher, higher
Throw your scarves in the air
When it falls down, catch it, catch it
When it falls down, catch it soon
Take it swimming, take it swimming
Take it swimming in the air
Hide it, find it, hide it, find it
Hide it, find it in the air
Move your scarves up and down, up and down, in the air
*A light blanket, t-shirt, or accessory scarf will work great for this song!

“No One Like You” from Sesame Street
I like your eyes
I like your nose
I like your mouth
Your ears, your hands, your toes
I like your face
It’s really you
I like the things you say and do
There’s not a single soul
Who sees the skies
The way you see them
Through your eyes
And aren’t you glad
You should be glad
There’s no one, no one
Exactly like you
“It’s Time to Say Goodbye” by Joseph Pinson
It’s time to say goodbye
It’s time to say so long
It’s time to say see you later, alligator
It’s time to say goodbye
In Japan, they say Sayonara
In Germany, they say Auf wiedersehen
In France, they say Au revior
And in Mexico, they say Adios
It’s time to say goodbye
It’s time to say so long
It’s time to say see you later, alligator
It’s time to say goodbye
