Our "Action Song for Kids" is a funky and bouncy dance tune that introduces the action verbs "clap", "stomp", "swing", "dance", "sing", jump", "touch", and "shake".
In the video, our robot and the little chicks present a funky choreography on the dance floor, while Mother Hen and the band are singing their hearts out!
This song can be used in the classroom or at home to encourage learning through music and body movement. The rhythm, musical arrangement, lyrics, and animation all work together to teach action verbs in the most effective way possible!
Young learners of English will also love this video, as it is easy to sing along (lots of lines are short and repeated often) and the words written and acted out on the screen.
Here are the lyrics to our Action Song:
(Chorus)
Naa, naa, naa
I'm so happy
Oh, so happy
Dance/Sing with me
(2x)
(Verse 1)
Clap, clap, clap your hands (kids repeat)
Stomp, stomp, stomp your feet (kids repeat)
Swing, swing, swing your arms (kids repeat)
dance everybody and sing with me! (kids repeat)
(Chorus)
Naa, naa, naa
I'm so happy
Oh, so happy
Dance/Sing with me
(2x)
(Verse 2)
Jump, jump, jump around (kids repeat)
Touch the sky and touch the ground (kids repeat)
Shake, shake, shake your hips (kids repeat)
I know a song, and it goes like this! (kids repeat)
(Chorus)
Naa, naa, naa
I'm so happy
Oh, so happy
Dance/Sing with me
(2x)

Clap, clap, clap your hands
Stomp, stomp, stomp your feet
Swing, swing, swing your arms

Jump, jump, jump around
Touch the sky and touch the ground
Shake, shake, shake your hips
I know a song, and it goes like this!

Naa, naa, naa
I'm so happy
Oh, so happy
Dance/Sing with me
