Open, Shut Them

If you haven't yet, make sure to grab my CD: http://www.mrmikesings.com/p/store.html

In the meantime, check out this song I remember from my own childhood. When I began working as a preschool teacher and heard it again it brought back so many great memories.

Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Give a little clap, clap, clap

Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Hide them in your lap

Creep them, crawl them
Creep them, crawl them
Right up to your chin
Open wide your little mouth...
But do not let them in.

Flutter, flutter, flutter, flutter
To your shoulders high
Then like little birdies,
Let them flutter to the sky

Falling, falling, falling, falling
Almost to the ground
Quickly pick them up again,
And turn them 'round and 'round

Faster, faster, faster, faster, faster, faster
Slower, slower, slower, slower
Faster, faster, faster, faster, faster, faster
Slower, slower, slower, slower
Clap!
