SONG: I’M A TALL, TALL TREE
This is my trunk, I’m a tall tall tree. (bend at waist and hold ankles then move up to standing with arms out and up like a tree’s branches)
In the spring, the blossoms bloom on me. (make hands into tight “buds”)
They bloom. They bloom. (twirl one wrist to an open hand, then the other)
This is my trunk, I’m a tall tall tree. (bend at waist and hold ankles then move up to standing with arms out and up like a tree’s branches
In the summer, the breezes blow through me. (“branches” up over head)
I bend. I bend. (slay left with arms up over head and right)
This is my trunk, I’m a tall tall tree. (bend at waist and hold ankles then move up to standing with arms out and up like a tree’s branches)
In the autumn, the apples drop from me. (make hands into fist to represent apples)
They drop. They drop. (roll fist over fist to the ground x2 as if the apples are falling)
This is my trunk, I’m a tall tall tree. (bend at waist and hold ankles then move up to standing with arms out and up like a tree’s branches)
In the winter, the snowflakes fall on me. (“branches” up over head)
They glisten. They glisten. (flutter fingers of one hand, then the other)
