Alligator Action Rhyme for Preschool
Lots of animals have babies in the spring, including alligators!! Explore an egg hatching with this fun action rhyme for kids!
Actually, alligators are born in the late spring or early summer--usually June or July. As they emerge from their eggs, their mother will carry them to shallow water where she can protect and feed them. Alligators are amazing mothers! They will take care of their babies for several months, up to a year!
Today, I'm sharing an alligator action rhyme! Go outside, pretend to be baby alligators, and do this rhyme! Use the suggested actions, or some of your own!
Baby alligator rolled up in an egg. {Bend down and wrap arms around legs in a "ball."}
Baby alligator breaks out its arm and leg! {Point to head and stretch out arm.}
Then stretch and stretch all around, {Stretch up with both arms to the sky.}
And crawl away on the ground! {Crawl away!}
Action rhymes for kids help preschoolers develop important pre-reading and early literacy skills while using large muscles and muscle groups. Gross motor activities paired with literacy activities actually lead to faster and more fun learning!
