Dance Party 2

Read about our first Dance Party.

Opening
I Know New Way to Say Hello from Exercise Party. 
 I used the tune and we added other things beyond the original lyrics. 

I know a new way to say hello, say hello, say hello
I know a new way to say hello all you do is blink your eyes
wiggle your ears
stomp your feet

but I still like the old way to say hello, say hello, say hello
I still like the old way to say hello, all I do is wave my hands

Zoom Zoom Zoom

Far, far, far, we're going to the stars (x 2)
If you want to take a trip climb aboard my rocket ship
Far, far, far, we're going to the stars
In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, blast off!

Fun, fun, fun we're going to the sun....

Zoom, Zoom, Zoom, We’re going to the moon.

Egg Shakers
Shake With You by Mr. Eric and Mr. Michael for Bouncy Blue

Can you shake along with me?
Along with me, along with me,
Can you shake along with?
Put your shaker on your... knee
Repeat with different body parts

Book Break - The Croaky Pokey by Ethan Long

Rhythm Sticks
Tapping On My Sticks by Kathy Reid-Naiman for I Love to Hear the Sounds 

This is the way we tap our sticks, tap our sticks, tap our sticks,
This is the way we tap our sticks, so early in the morning.

Other verses:
This is the way we scrape our sticks…
(scrape the smooth stick against the fluted stick)
This is the way we tap them soft…(tap very softly)
This is the way we scrape them soft…
This is the way we tap the floor…
This is the way we tap our shoes… 
(Stretch legs in front and tap on toes)

Closing with Scarves
Reach Up High from the Exercise Party cd

Oh the city is great and the city is grand
There's a whole lot of peopleon a little piece of land
And we live way up on the 57th floor
and this is what we do when we go out the door.
We take the elevator up and the elevator down,
take the elevator up, take the elevator down
Take the elevator up and the elevator down and we turn around.

Oh the ocean is great and the ocean is grand. 
There are lots of tall ships and very little land. 
And we sleep down deep in a hammock near the floor
And this is what we do when we go out the door: 
We ride the waves going up, we ride the waves going down 
We ride the waves going up, we ride the waves going down
We ride the waves going up, we ride the waves going down
And we turn around.
