Sing a Song
Waves at the Beach
(Tune: “Wheels on the Bus”)
The waves at the beach go up and down,
Up and down, up and down.
The waves at the beach go up and down,

Try these verses:

Crabs at the beach crawl back and forth
Lobsters at the beach go snap, snap, snap
Clams at the beach will open and shut
Watch!
