Gray Squirrel (Shake Your Bushy Tail)

Veronica T. sang a song for us today called Gray Squirrel.  The first time you sing this song, do it as written.  The second time, do the hand motions, but sing the notes on "la-la-la".  The third time, continue the hand motions while humming all the notes.  Finally, only do the hand motions in time without making any noise.




Here are the lyrics (with hand motions):

Gray squirrel (put right hand out in front of you with wrist bent down like a paw),
gray squirrel (put left hand out to join the right hand with wrist bent like a paw),
Shake your bushy tail (wiggle hands to left and right, wiggle hips, and bend your knees more on each beat).

<repeat>

Wrinkle up your little nose (point to your nose with one finger),
Put a nut between your toes (use your pincer grip to pluck an imaginary nut from the air and bring it down between your toes)

Gray squirrel (put right hand out in front of you with wrist bent down like a paw),

gray squirrel (put left hand out to join the right hand with wrist bent like a paw),

Shake your bushy tail (wiggle hands to left and right, wiggle hips, and bend your knees more on each beat).
