This month’s simplest of songs
brings together two of my current projects. The tune is to a
traditional melody you’ll find as part of A
Baker’s Dozen on
SingWithOurKids.com. And for the summer
reading theme for 2013, Dig into Reading, this is one of several
songs I’ve written for librarians to use in their story times.
More will be found on the summer reading page later this week.
Though very short, it packs a lot of kid smiles and
participation!
Digger Dog
I have a little doggy, his
paws are really big
(hold hands in paw
position and flop them around as you sing)
And when he goes outside he
likes to dig and dig and dig
(make digging
motion with hands)
He drops his bone into the
hole and covers it in a snap
(place one fist on
either side of mouth to indicate bone,
and drop fists down to ground
Puts one paw on the other
then lies down to take a nap
(rest one forearm
on other and lay head on hands)
