Ocean Fun!

Taken from Laura's Ocean Fun Thematic Unit!

Songs:

We're little Orange Crabs
Sung to: "The Farmer in the Dell"

We're little orange crab,s
Who live down by the sea.
And wherever we go,
We're quick as quick can be.

We're little orange crabs,
Who like to run and hide.
And when you see us walking by,
It's always side-to-side.

(Jean Warren)

The Waves Are Moving
Sung to: "When Johnny Comes Marching Home"

The waves are moving across the sea,
hurrah, hurray,
The waves are moving across the sea,
hurrah, hurrah,
The waves are moving constantly,
They move so fast across the sea.
Oh, the waves are moving so fast
across the sea.

Gayle Bittinger


I"m a little Fish
Sung to: "I'm a Little Teapot"

I'm a little fishy, I can swim.
Here is my tail, here is my fin.
When I want to have fun with my friends,
I wiggle my tail and dive right in.
