We sang and danced "Here We Go Looby Loo" (from Music K-8, Vol. 10, No. 2) in Kindergarten. I taught them the song and dance a capella, and then we used the CD accompaniment. Then... we did the fun thing of adding scarves! I gave five different colors and we sang...

"Here we go looby loo..."
"You put the red scarves in. You put the red scarves out."
"You give the scarves a shake, shake, shake and turn yourselves about."

Next we sang the blue, yellow, white, and black scarves. As we turned ourselves about, we swirled the scarves over our heads and hung them around the back of our neck as we danced the circle dance. It was really neat and the kids just lit up with the colorful scarves!
