Spin

Opening Song: “Oh Hey, Oh Hi, Hello” by Jim Gill

Stretches: “Bendable Stretchable” by Georgiana Stewart

Fingerplay: I Can

I can run, I can hop,

I can spin 'round like a top.

I can stretch my arms out wide,

I can swing them from side to side.

I can stand up straight and tall,

I can make myself be so small.

I can kneel without a sound

And sit cross-legged on the ground.

Prop Collection Song: “Clean It Up” by Laurie Berkner

Clean it up, clean it up.

You can make it fun to do

And your friends can help you too.

Clean it up, clean it up

And put it away, put it away.

Put your things away!

Fingerplay: Spin Some More

This spinning around so fast,

Makes me grow dizzy at last.

So I fall upon the floor,

Then get up and spin some more.
