Make it up

We do a lot of singing around our house.  A lot.  Probably hours every day.  We have our favorite songs and we often change the words to our favorites to sing about what we are doing.  My daughter just loves making up new songs.  

Here's an example of one we made up swinging outside.

The Airplane in the Sky (to the tune of "The Wheels on the Bus")
The airplane in the sky goes vroom, vroom, vroom
Vroom, Vroom, Vroom
Vroom, Vroom, Vroom
The airplane in the sky goes vroom, vroom, vroom
All across the sky

(At this point I asked my daughter what other things are in the sky and we made up verses as she thought of them)

The sun in the sky shines brightly down, brightly down, brighly down
The sun in the sky shines brightly down all day long

The birds in the sky go tweet, tweet, tweet
 tweet, tweet, tweet
 tweet, tweet, tweet
The birds in the sky go tweet, tweet, tweet 
All day long

The moon in the sky shines on down
Shines on down, shines on down
The moon in the sky shines on town 
All night long

The stars in the sky twinkle, twinkle, twinkle
Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle
Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle
The stars in the sky twinkle, twinkle, twinkle
All night long

The clouds in the sky blow on by, blow on by, blow on by
The clouds in the sky blow on by
All day long


Making up songs is so much fun and really get that little brain working.  She was the one to come up with what is in the sky and surprisingly only picked things that are in the sky.
