Parent Tip: Make a walk more interesting
Song: "Walking, Walking" (Wee Sing Children's Songs and Fingerplays)
• When on a hike or just walking around the neighborhood, if your child is
tired and wants you to carry him/her, try this: To the tune of "Are
You Sleeping" sing and follow the actions of the words,
- Walking, walking, walking, walking,
Hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop,
Running, running, running, running, running, running,
Now let's stop, now let's stop.
• Continue for as long as it holds the child's attention.
Teacher Tip: Transition time
Song: “Walking, Walking” (Wee Sing Children’s Songs and Fingerplays)
• When out on the playground and it's time to come in, instead of blowing
a whistle or yelling, try this: To the tune of "Are You Sleeping" sing and
follow the actions of the words,
- Walking, walking, walking, walking,
Hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop,
Running, running, running, running, running, running,
Now let's stop, now let's stop.
• Continue singing and doing the actions until all children are in line and ready to walk into the classroom.
