Go under the sea with the Super Simple version of the classic kids’ song, Baby Shark!
This fun and active song is great for introducing members of the family. Meet baby, mama, papa, grandma, and grandpa shark as they go for a swim. When they run into a school of little fish, get ready to go fast! Act out the song with these gestures:
Key Gestures:
Baby shark: make a shark mouth with finger and thumb
Mama shark: make a mouth with both hands, opening at the wrist
Papa shark: make a big mouth with both of your arms
Grandma shark: like mama shark, but with fingers curled in
Grandpa shark: like papa shark, but with fingers curled in
Hungry shark: one hand on head like a fin, rubbing tummy with the other hand
Little fish: both hands together with fingers pointing forward, move from side to side
Swim: pretend to swim
Safe: wipe forehead, and flick hand like removing sweat
Bye bye shark: one hand on head like a fin, wave goodbye
