Verse 1 When life gets you down and things around are seeming blue

When fun is all around but there’s nothing that you wanna do There’s always someone special someone who cares

I’ll sing out loud and thank the world for you

The 5 Senses

Chorus How many senses do you know? X 3

Come have a guess! Have a go! Verse 1

Seeing is what we do with our big round eyes Looking at the flowers the clouds In the sky

Roses are red violets are blue The colours of the rainbow shining just for you

Verse 2 Hearing’s what’s we do with our ears on our head

Mummy’s still calling get out of bed! The playground bell is ringing out loud

Listen to your teachers make them feel proud.

Verse 3 You smell with the bump in the middle of your face

The dinner hall is my favourite place I can smell the chips and the biscuits too! Take a deep breath Mmm that smells good!

Verse 4 Taste is what you do with the tongue in your mouth

Taste buds north east west and south Helping us decide what we like to eat

Crisps are really salty chocolate’s sweet!

Verse 5 Hands help us touch, things all around

Helping us explore the things that we found Feeling if it’s rough smooth or hot

Helping us decide if we pick it up or not.

Stop look and listen Verse 1

Feel the rhythm of your busy street Cars bikes buses look around and you will see

Babies in buggies making a fuss People rushing rushing running and rushing

But if you wanna cross the street

Chorus You gotta stop look and listen

And check to the left and check to the right And then you double check

To make sure that you’re right Yeah yeah

Verse 2 You wanna keep safe so listen to me

A zebra crossing is a good place to be Black and white lines and flashing lights

People rushing rushing running and rushing But if you wanna cross the street

Verse 3 A pelican crossing is another good place to be

Push the button and wait for the beep When you see the green man it’s safe to cross

People rushing rushing running and rushing But if you wanna cross the street

Verse 4 And never never cross if you can’t clearly see

If there is a hand to hold hold it tight Listen to your grown ups and you’ll be safe People rushing rushing running and rushing

But if you wanna cross the street

Up in my balloon Verse 1 Seeing things near and far in your local area

Oh what a feeling when your outside having fun Buildings big and small shops are busy car parks full

What other features can you see? There’s a church on the left a park on the right

Station’s ahead, flats are way up high

Chorus Up in my balloon let’s take a ride

We’re flying up so high until we touch the sky Up in my balloon we’ll look below

We’ll take the sights in slow Watch our local area slide show

Verse 2 Seeing things near and far in your local area Oh what a feeling when your outside having fun

Parks green ducks in the pond children playing singing songs

Look around what can you see? Joggers on the run dogs on leads

Riding your bike running feeling free…..

Dinosaur land Chorus In dinosaur land they’re out to get you

In dinosaur land they’re friendly too In dinosaur land you must be careful

Cos a big pair of eyes are watching you

Verse 1 If you take a trip back in time A couple hundred million years

You might be surprised by the creatures you find Why don’t we take a look

Who’s there high in the trees?

A neck so long munching on leaves A tail like a slide but there’s no need to hide

He’s diplodocus and he’s not mean

Verse 2 Who’s the most scary of all? Big teeth and razor sharp claws

Hunting his prey it’s a meat feast today His name is T Rex get out of his way

Verse 3 Who’s there as big as a bus?

It’s Stegosaurus don’t make a fuss With spikes on his tail and plates on his back

He’s on the look out he’s on the attack

Verse 4 Who’s that high in the sky? A long nose and wings stretching wide

Long distance he flies with a good set of eyes It’s Pterodactyl let’s wave him on by
