Color Square Dance


 


Have the children form a square or a circle.

As you say the rhyme, have the children wearing name-tags of each color do the actions indicated.

(Could also have sashes of the different colors--red, blue, yellow, green.)

Speak slowly so that they can follow one direction at a time.


Blues, step forward.

Then turn around.

Walk back to your place

And jump up and down.

 

Reds, hop to the middle

And back again.

Find the yellows

And shake their hands.

 

Now, greens, you slowly

Turn around.

Clap your hands

And make a sound.

 

Do-si-so

Around we go,

All the colors

Heel and toe.
