Mother's Day

I Often Go Walking:
Cut out one or more:

• green clovers (shamrocks will do)
• blue flowers
• several different flower shapes (different colors)
• bouquet of flowers (artificial, real or paper)

Idea 1
Have a child or a few children hold up:

• the clover as you sing the first phrase.
• blue flowers as you sing the second phrase.
• several different flowers as you sing the third phrase.
• bouquet of flowers as you sing the forth phrase.

Idea 2
Once they know the song:

• 1st phrase - walk in place through the clover
• 2nd phrase - play like you are gathering armfuls of blossoms
• 3rd phrase - play like you are picking one flower at a time
• 4th phrase - play like you are giving the bouquet to Mother

Idea 3
Trade every other phrase:

• boys then girls
• half the room then the other half
• teachers then children
• children then piano
