What a fun class today! I get such a kick out of each child. I love their stories.
To celebrate the Fourth, how about singing “What shall we do on the 4th of July?” to our song “What shall we do when we all go out?” We can watch fireworks, go boom like fireworks, sparkle like sparklers, or sing about the many other things your child will experience on this fun holiday.
Below you will find some more holiday ideas. I hope you all have a safe and fun day!

Fourth of July Songs
It’s America’s Birthday!
Sing to “London Bridge is Falling Down”
Beat a drum, march along, march along, march along.
Beat a drum march along, It’s America’s birthday!
Wave a flag, sing a song, sing a song, sing a song.
Wave a flag sing a song, It’s America’s Birthday!
Fireworks go snap,snap,snap! Crack,crack,crack! Zap,zap,zap!
Fireworks make me clap! On Independence Day!
Fun Fireworks Sounds
(Chant)
Boom Bang! Boom, bang, boom bang!
Rumpety, lumpety, hump!
Zoom, zam, zoom, zam!
Clippety, clappety, clump!
Rustles and bustles And swishes and zings!
What wonderful noises Fireworks bring!
I’m a Little Firework
To the tune of “I’m A Little Teapot”
I’m a little firework
Up in the sky.
I dance and I shimmer
Way up, up high.
Sometimes I’m red.
Sometimes I’m blue.
But I always sparkle
Just for you.
