Rockin' Kindergarten for over 30 years!

If Your Line is Getting Wiggly, Clap Your Hands!

The countdown to Spring Break is on, and somehow the children can smell it in the air.  This time of year the line always seems to be a bit more…zig zag than usual.  So, if that’s a challenge you’re facing these days, here’s a quick and easy song to get those kids back with you.

 

To the tune of  “If You’re Happy and You Know it”

If you’re ready to go to lunch (recess, library, etc.) clap your hands!

If you’re ready to go to lunch clap your hands!

If you’re ready and you know it,

Then your feet surely show it, (ie: they’re in a quiet line)

If you’re ready and you know it stand in line!

 

Here’s to a week of quiet, straight-ish lines!  If you’ve tried this – we’d love to hear about it. Did it work for you?  Do you have something else you swear by, instead?
