* When children listen to music and words—while following directions— many parts of their brains are firing at the same time. If children sing as they move, they are using additional brain neurons. Creative movement activities, therefore, are excellent experiences to promote brain growth. {Southern Early Childhood Association, Dimension, Fall 2005, Vol. 33, #3}
EAR SCAT {Scat means to make your voice sound
like an instrument!}*
Do your ears hang low Do they wobble to and fro
Can you tie them in a knot Can you tie them in a bow
Scat Do your ears hang low
Do your ears hang high Do the reach up to the sky
Do they wrinkle when they’re wet Do they straighten when they dry
Scat Do your ears hang high
Do your ears hang wide
Do they flip from side to side Do they wave in the breeze
From the slightest little sneeze Scat
Do your ears hang wide
