Just follow the instructions in the song. The kids love this song. Some people use this every week the whole year long to help the kids get their wiggles out.


The Goldfish (Let's go swimming) - Laurie Berkner, Victor Vito
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000TE6ODY/ref=dm_mu_dp_trk12 We love to imagine we are fish and dance and move around to the ques of the music.

Let's go Fly a Kite- Marry Poppins Sountrack, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0013HYKNC/ref=dm_mu_dp_trk17?ie=UTF8&qid=1252953163&sr=1-5

For this song you can assemble recycled grocery bags with a string and make kites. The kids love these kites!
