ClassX Video Lessons Grade Kindergarten Great Way to Start the Day Start the Day Song | Kids Stretching Song
Are you ready to have a super fun day? Let’s get our eyes, heart, hands, brain, and body ready for lots of fun and learning!
First, let’s stretch our arms way up high! Now, sway them side to side like a tree in the wind. Can you feel the stretch? Let’s do it again!
Spread your legs apart, one and two. Now, lean side to side to stretch them too. Great job!
Take a big breath in, hold it, and then let it out nice and slow. Let’s do it one more time. Breathe in, hold, and breathe out slowly. Feels good, right?
Roll your head slowly round and round. Look up to the sky, then look down to the ground. Let’s roll our head again. Up and down, nice and slow.
Hold your hands together and twist your body side to side. Nice and slow, just like this. Let’s do it again!
Wiggle your fingers like a spider crawling. Now, make them fall like raindrops. Let’s do it again, spider crawl and raindrop fall!
Loosen your shoulders by moving them up and down. Now, make big circles with your arms, round and round. Let’s do it one more time!
Put your arms out front and crisscross them. This helps build your brain and body. Let’s crisscross again!
Now, your eyes are ready to see so much. Your heart is ready to give some love. Your hands are ready to help someone. Your brain and body are ready to learn and have fun!
Get ready to work and play. It’s a great way to start the day. Have a good day!
Nature Walk Stretch: Take a walk outside with your child and find a tree. Encourage them to stretch their arms up high like the branches of the tree. Ask them to sway side to side like the tree in the wind. Can they find other things in nature that move or stretch? Discuss how different parts of nature move and grow.
Breathing with Colors: Gather some colorful objects or crayons. Ask your child to pick a color and take a deep breath in while looking at it. As they breathe out, have them imagine blowing the color into the air. Repeat with different colors. Talk about how breathing can help us feel calm and focused, just like the colors make us feel different emotions.
Body Movement Story: Create a short story together where each part involves a movement from the lesson. For example, “Once upon a time, there was a tall tree (stretch arms up high) that swayed in the wind (sway side to side). Nearby, a little spider (wiggle fingers) crawled up and down.” Encourage your child to add their own movements and ideas to the story. This helps them connect movement with creativity and storytelling.
