Barn owl’s nest with 13 babies (called chickens)
Song: Just Like an Owl Tune: “Mary had a little lamb”
Flap your wings,
And fly around, fly around, fly around,
Flap your wings and fly around,
Just like an owl.
Open your eyes,
Big and wide, big and wide, big and wide,
Open your eyes, big and wide,
Just like an owl.
Land on the ground,
And hop along, hop along, hop along,
Land on the ground, and hop along,
Just like an owl.
Turn your head,
From side to side, side to side, side to side,
Turn your head from side to side,
Just like an owl.
Fly and say, “Hoot, hoot, hoot”, “hoot, hoot, hoot”, “Hoot, hoot, hoot”,
Fly and say, “Hoot, hoot, hoot”,
Just like an owl.
Poem: Wide Eyed Owl
There's a wide eyed owl (make circles with fingers around eyes)
With a pointed nose (point at nose)
Two pointed ears (use fingers for ears)
And claws for toes (wiggle fingers and point to toes)
He lives way up in the tree (point up overhead)
And when he looks at you (point away from self)
He flaps his wings (flap arms like wings)
And says Who....Whooo! (continue flapping)
