SONGS, SPARKLERS, AND CHEERS/05-04

Song - There's a Hole in the Bottom of the Sea  


There's a hole in the bottom of the sea,
There's a hole in the bottom of the sea,
There's a hole, There's a hole, There's a hole in the bottom of the sea.
(with hands make a horizontal hole, point down, wiggle fingers as seawater)
There's a whale in the hole at the bottom of the sea,
There's a whale in the hole at the bottom of the sea,
There's a whale, There's a whale, There's a whale in the hole at the bottom of the sea.
(add to actions a large circle in the air for whale)
There's a tail on the whale in the hole at the bottom of the sea..........etc.
(add to actions a wave upwards of the arm)
There's a bone in the tail on the whale in the hole at the bottom of the sea ..........etc.
(add to actions a chop action by side of one hand onto other hand)
There's a nerve in the bone in the tail on the whale in the hole at the bottom of the sea .....etc.
(add to actions a shiver of the body)
By the end of the song, most people will be exhausted.

 

Columbus Cheer


Put hands up like
you're holding a
telescope and
shout, “Land Ho.”

 

 

 

 

Deep-Sea Diver Cheer


Pretend to put on your diving suit, adjust your
helmet, pretend to close face door and screw the
locks in place. Then pretend to jump into the water
by jumping one step ahead, pretend to be sinking to
the ocean floor, mumbling, "BLUG, BLUG,
BLUG!!!"
VARIATION: Add the following when you reach
the “bottom:” walk around very stiffly in a circle,
then slowly bend over and pick up something and
yell, "I found the TREASURE!!! I found the
TREASURE."
