The Song: Hey Hey Everybody

(More Music with Mar CD)

Hey hey everybody lift your arms (3x)
And smile a smile for me.

Hey hey everybody lift your arms
Turn around (3X)
And smile a smile for me.

Hey hey everybody lift your arms
Turn around; stamp your foot (3X)
And smile a smile for me.

Hey hey everybody lift your arms
Turn around, stamp your foot
Get down stand up (3X)
And smile a smile for me.

Hey hey everybody lift your arms
Turn around, stamp your foot
Get down stand up; make a silly sound (3X)
And smile a smile for me.

The Craft: Fun Hat/Crown

What you’ll need:

• A paper plate
• Colored construction paper or tissue paper
• Paint, markers, or crayons
• Scissors
• Glue
• Optional – glitter, crepe paper or other ribbons

How to make it:

Cut a slit through the center of the paper plate, leaving about an inch at the edges of the plate. Cut three more slits.

Bend the triangles formed by the cuts upwards, forming leaf-like shapes. If you want a colored hat you can use a colored plate or color a white plate with paint, crayons, or markers.

Use your imagination to decorate your hat.  Some ideas include stickers, flowers cut from construction paper or tissue paper, foam shapes, glitter glue, or dot markers.
