For today’s podcast episode you will need to grab an egg shaker (or find a substitute around the house: the spice cabinet is a great place to look!) and let’s sing songs about eggs today.
“Shake and shake and shake and shake and stop” is a favorite around here to practice listening skills and impulse control, but we can customize it so many ways that the teaching opportunities are endless!
We’re gonna shake and shake and shake and shake and stop.
“Eggs, eggs, we like eggs!” This simple tune is a fun one for breakfast time, or anytime! We work on color recognition and body part recognition too- a great one for young toddlers.
Eggs, eggs, we like eggs,
Eggs, eggs, we like eggs,
Eggs, eggs, we like eggs,
Hard boiled poached or scrambled.
If you have a blue egg….
Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks from Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition” is a short, fast-paced, imagination-packed classical piece that you don’t want to miss!
The final egg-themed song is a Clap for Classics! Original: “Shakey the Shaker.”
Shakey the shaker makes a sound,
Shaky the shaker spins around
She can do a dance
Take a bow
How would you like to shake her now?
