All The Things I Can Do 03:04
lyrics
buy track
I know how to rest and I know how to play, I know how to listen and have a great day, Can you do all the things that I can do? Oh can you hop up and down? Can you hop and touch the ground? Hop, hop, hop, hop now stop! Chorus Oh can you lie on the ground? Can you lay and not make a sound? Lay, lay, lay, lay now play! Chorus Oh can you spin ‘round and ‘round? Can you spin ‘til the sun goes down? Spin, spin, spin, spin chidren! Chorus Oh can you sit criss cross? Can you sit applesauce? Sit, sit, sit; now we’re done with it!

The train is rolling through the town, Making a loud clanking sound. Very steady the steam blows, The people wave and off it goes. The train is a rollin' The train is a runnin'

lyrics

Come on down to the firefly farm, To catch all the fireflies in the barn! Come on down, I said come on down! Come on down, I said come on down! Bring your hat and bring your net, How many fireflies can you get? Come on down, I said come on down, Come on down, I said come on down. Hey, there’s one I see, And next to it is two and three. Catch ‘em, put them in your jar, We have three fireflies so far. Come on down, I said come on down, Come on down, I said come on down. Hey, there’s four I see, Five and six there near the tree. Catch ‘em put them in your jar, We have six fireflies so far. Come on down, I said come on down, Come on down, I said come on down Hey, there’s seven I see, Eight, nine, ten shining around our knees, Catch ‘em , put them in your jar, We have ten fireflies so far. Come on down, I said come on down, Come on down, I said come on down. Oh no, there’s a cow I see! He is running towards you and me! Oops! We dropped our jar! We have zero fireflies so far. We feel down, I said we feel down, We feel down, I said we feel down. Hey, there’s five I see, And five more up in the tree. Catch ‘em, put them in your jar, We have ten fireflies bright like stars! Come on down, I said come on down, Come on down, I said come on down.

You can eat the rainbow; it’s easy to do, With every bright color in your rainbow chew. In your rainbow chew- do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do What’s your favorite fruit that’s orange or red? To eat all by itself or in between your bread? In your rainbow chew-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do What do you say? What do you say? What’s your favorite fruit that’s yellow or green? That maybe you’ve heard of or that you’ve seen? In your rainbow chew-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do What do you say? What do you say? What’s your favorite fruit that’s purple or blue? That brightens up your snack with a rainbow chew? In your rainbow chew-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do What do you say? What do you say? You can eat the rainbow; it’s easy to do, With every bright color in your rainbow chew. In your rainbow chew- do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Having Fun Together 02:56
lyrics

I have a great time playing with a fun toy, But nothing beats sharing, No nothing beat sharing, To bring my friends joy. So I’ll take a turn, You’ll take a turn, Then we’ll play together! You’ll take a turn, Then I’ll take a turn, Having fun together! We can take a turn or play together, Though it may be hard, It may be hard, Sharing it better.

Chorus: I use my hands to clap, I use my hands to eat, I use my hands to draw, I use my hands to hug my friends and family, My hands belong to me!

Chorus Verse 2: I use my hands to eat, When I have some food, I use my hands to eat, No matter what my mood. Chorus Verse 3: I use my hands to draw, A picture for my dad, I use my hands to draw, It makes me feel so glad! Chorus Verse 4: I use my hands to hug, My friends and family, I use my hands to hug, And remember to do it gently! Chorus

I have a little phrase I like to say, I can say it most any way, I can whisper it, say it, and yell it too, But my favorite way is singing a tune. My favorite words they go like this, Make sure there’s not a sound you miss, Are you ready to go I’m going to whisper now, Can you do it along? I’ll show you how! Whisper Sha-ma-na-ma-loolee Sha-ma-na-ma-loolee Sha-ma-na-ma-na My favorite words they go like this, Make sure there’s not a sound you miss, Are you ready to go I’m going to talk them now, Can you do it along? I’ll show you how! Talk Sha-ma-na-ma-loolee Sha-ma-na-ma-loolee Sha-ma-na-ma-na My favorite words they go like this, Make sure there’s not a sound you miss, Are you ready to go I’m going to yell them now, Can you do it along?

Yell Sha-ma-na-ma-loolee Sha-ma-na-ma-loolee Sha-ma-na-ma-na I have a little phrase I like to say, I can say it most any way, I can whisper it, say it, and yell it too, But my favorite way is singing a tune.

The Silence Game 03:00
lyrics
buy track
Chorus: This is my favorite game It’s called the silence game. It helps me to be a peace And let all my thoughts cease. 1. First I close my eyes and listen to what’s inside 2. Second I try not to speak and try not to talk or peek Chorus 3. Third I hear my heart beat and listen to the noise on the street 4. Fourth I feel my breath move slow and notice my stomach fall and grow Chorus 5. Fifth I think of a peaceful place in my own quiet space 6. Last I wiggle my arms and toes and back into the world I go Chorus

These Are My Feelings 03:03
lyrics

When I feel happy, I feel happy, I feel happy, I like to smile. When I feel happy, I feel happy, I feel happy, I like to smile. When I feel silly, I feel silly, I feel silly, I wiggle my nose. When I feel silly, I feel silly, I feel silly, I wiggle my nose. These are my feelings, these are my feelings, These are my feelings, these are my feelings. When I feel sad, I feel sad, I feel sad, I make a frown. When I feel sad, I feel sad, I feel sad, I make a frown. When I feel angry, I feel angry, I feel angry, My eyebrows scrunch. When I feel angry, I feel angry, I feel angry, My eyebrows scrunch. These are my feelings, these are my feelings, These are my feelings, these are my feelings. When I feel sleepy, I feel sleepy, I feel sleepy, My eyes shut. When I feel sleepy, I feel sleepy, I feel sleepy, My eyes shut. When I feel surprised, feel surprised, feel surprised, My eyes and mouth get big. When I feel surprised, feel surprised, feel surprised, My eyes and mouth get big. These are my feelings, these are my feelings, These are my feelings, these are my feelings.

The Jazz Band 03:12
lyrics

Yesterday I went somewhere new, It was kind of silly and funny too, With grown men dressed up like penguins, Making all kinds of sounds. There were flutes, and trumpets and saxophones, Drums, clarinets and trombones, With a big tall man in the center, Waving his arms all around. Let me show you around, As you mimic their sounds! The flutes played a quiet note, to what the composers wrote, They went: Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo- Doo! Trumpets played a louder note to what the composer wrote, They went: Wap, wap, wap, wap, wap, Wap, wap, wap, wap, wap- Wap! Saxaphones played a louder note to what the composers wrote, They went: Skeedle, deedle, deedle, dee, Skeedle, deedle, deedle, dee- Skeet! Drums played a louder note to what the composer wrote, They went: Booma, chicka, booma, chicka, Booma, chicka, booma, chicka- Boom! Clarinets played a louder note to what the composers wrote, They went: Honkey, donkey, doo, Honkey, donkey, doo- Honk! Trombones played the loudest note to what the composers wrote, They went: Derpa, derpa, derp, Derpa, derpa, derp- Derp! Yesterday I went somewhere new, It was kind of silly and funny too, With grown men dressed up like penguins, Making all kinds of sounds!
