Put your hands up in the air.
Put your hands down on your nose.
Put your hands up in the air.
Now bend down and touch your toes.
Everybody turn around.
Now let's all jump up and down.
Put your right hand in the air.
Put your right hand on your lips.
Put your left hand in the air.
Now put both hands on your hips.
Everybody turn around.

Walk back quietly to your seat.

Put your hands in your lap.
Bow your head and take a nap.

The elephant moves very slowly
Oh, so very slowly.
He doesn't like to move too fast
But, should he see a tiger,
Or spy a mean old hunter,
He will start to run and shake the ground
And make them all fall down.
Rumble, rumble, rumble
Hear the jungle rumble
Rumble, rumble, rumble
Hear the jungle rumble.
The trees shake and sway
As the birdies fly away,
Lions run and hide
With their babies by their side.
Rumble, rumble, rumble
Hear the jungle rumble
Rumble, rumble, rumble
Hear the jungle rumble
Rumble, rumble, rumble
Hear the jungle rumble.
The elephant moves very slowly
Oh so very slowly
He doesn't like to move too fast
Because he is so big and fat.

We're marching around the alphabet,
around the alphabet.
We're passing letters from ABC, all the way to XYZ.
We're marching around the alphabet, around the alphabet
Where we stop nobody knows, until the whistle blows.
Now bend down right where you are, pick a letter that's near your toes.
When the teacher points to you, tell the teacher which letter you chose.
Tell the teacher which letter you chose.
Put your letter back on the ground
Stand up tall and march around.
We're march around the alphabet, around the alphabet.
We're passing letters from ABC, all the way to XYZ.

There are so many things that grow,
grow, grow,
So many things that grow, grow, grow.
There are flowers and trees and chimpanzees, mice and rats and little kitty
cats.
There are monkeys and parrots, peas and carrots, boy and girls all over the
world.
Now, let's start with a tiny little seed, that slowly grows and becomes a
tree
And the little twigs and branches become big limbs
With leaves that sway and rustle in the wind,
With leaves that sway and rustle in the wind.
There are so many things that grow, grow, grow,
So many things that grow, grow, grow.
There are flowers and trees and chimpanzees, mice and rats and little kitty
cats.
There are monkeys and parrots, peas and carrots, boys and girls all over
the world.
Now we started out as a tiny little baby,
And we grew a little bit and then we could crawl,
And we grew a little more and then we could walk,
And we grew a little more and then we could talk,
And we grew a little more and we could run like the wind.
There are so many things that grow, grow, grow
So many things that grow, grow, grow.
There are flowers and tress and chimpanzees, mice and rats and little kitty
cats.
There are monkeys and parrots, peas and carrots, boys and girls all over
the world.
Yes, boys and girls all over the world.

Birds are flying through the air,
Gliding, flying through the air.
All is calm and peaceful
High up in the sky.
High above the tall pine trees,
High above the deep blue sea,
All is calm and peaceful
High up in the sky.
One little birdie flies down to the
ground
Another little birdie follows him down.
All the other birdies fly down to the ground,
All the other birdies fly down to the ground.
Now they rest their wings, rest and sing.
Rest and sing about all they have seen
Rest their wings, rest and sing.
Rest and sing about beautiful things.
One little birdie flies up in the air,
Another little birdie follows him there.
All the other birdies fly up in the air,
All the other birdies fly up in the air.
Birds are flying through the air,
Gliding, flying through the air.
All is calm and peaceful
High up in the sky.
