You
just never know where a song will come from! As I was driving
down the freeway last week after the sixth rainiest January on
record in Seattle (continuing into February), the steady rhythm
of the windshield wipers lent their accompaniment to my
songwriting brain. The result is this month’s song. You can have
a lot of fun with different voices. The song is both simple
enough for the youngest children, and silly enough in that “camp
song” way for older kids. If you want to bring in some literacy,
print out the pictures and put them into a 3-ring binder for an
instant book.
TIP: You’ll find many other
printable books with songs on my
Sing With Our Kids website on
the
Activities page.
To extend the song you can either ask the children to suggest
more water-loving animals, or change “water” to tree, or ground,
or other environment. Simple songs- endless possibilities!
I
Love Water
I’m a duck I love the water,
I love water, quack quack, quack
I’m a frog, I love the water
I Love water, ribit, ribit, ribit
I’m a fish, I love the water
I love water, glug, glug, glug
I’m a snake, I love the water
I love water, hiss, hiss, hiss
I’m a bug, I love the water
I love water, zip, zip, zip
I’m a kid I love the water
I love water, splish, splish, splash!
