Kindergarten Readiness – Santa Action Song

How does Santa get in shape for Christmas Eve? Well, like the reindeer and the elves he does the Hokey Pokey, too, (see previous blogs). His special getting ready action song goes like this: (to the tune of Old Macdonald had a farm)

Santa gets ready for Christmas Eve, this is how it goes.
With a wrap, wrap, here and a wrap, wrap, there.
Here a wrap, there a wrap, everywhere a wrap, wrap.
Santa gets ready for Christmas Eve. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.

With a taste test here and a taste testĀ there….
With a get dressed here and a get dressed there….
With a pack, pack, here and a pack, pack, there….
With a reindeer here and a reindeer there….
With a fill stockings here and a fill stockings there….
With a dash away here and a dash away there…. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.

When it comes to kindergarten readiness, there is no category called using imagination. Nevertheless, imagining is part of being ready for school–and life. With imagination, children can think of the results of different choices, solve problems, practice life skills, engage in interaction with others. Innovation and creativity are skills with roots in imagination. SingĀ a silly song and fill the season with the magic of imagination.
