MAGIC PENNY SONG:: (Malvina Reynolds)
Love is something if you give it away, give it away, give it away.
Love is something if you give it away. You'll end up having more.
It's just like a magic penny. Hold it tight and you won't have any.
But, lend it spend it and you'll have so many. They'll roll all over the floor,
for,
Love is something if you give it away, give it away, give it away.
Love is something if you give it away. You'll end up having more.

or simply clap your hands on these parts

Twinkle twinkle star so bright
Winking at me in the night.
How I wish that I could fly
And visit you up in the sky.
I wish I may I wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight.
WALK ON THE LEAVES
Some leaves stay green all year round.
While others change colours, yellow, orange, red and brown.
Leaves falling down gently to the ground.
To make a fancy carpet scattered colours on the ground.
Let's walk on the leaves. Let's walk on the leaves.
Let's walk on the leaves. Let's walk on the leaves.
Mother Nature's fancy carpet
Scattered colours on the ground.
GREEN, BLUE & PURPLE LEVELS
BUTTON YOU MUST WANDER
Button you must wander, wander, wander
Button you must wander everywhere.
Bright eyes will find you.
Sharp eyes will find you
Button you must wander everywhere.
CUT THE CAKE
Clap your hands together. Give yourself a shake.
Make a happy circle and then you cut the cake.
Hello To All The Children Of The World
Hello, Bonjour, Buenos Dias. G'day, Gutentag, Konichiwa.
Ciao, Shalom, Dobray Dayen. Hello to all the children of the world.
We live in different places from all around the world. We speak in many different
ways.
Tho some things might be different we're children just the same. And we all
like to sing and play.
(Repeat chorus)
There are children in the deserts and children in the towns.
And children who live down by the sea.
If we could meet each other to run and sing and play.
Then what good friends we all could be. (Repeat chorus).
