Have you Ever Seen a Seal?
"Did you Ever See a Lassie"

Have you ever seen a seal,
A seal, a seal? Clap his flippers?
He claps and claps and claps and claps.
Have you ever seen a seal
Clap his flippers?

Have you ever seen a seal,
A seal, a seal? Go arf, arf, arf, arf??
He barks and barks and barks and barks.
Have you ever seen a seal
Go arf, arf, arf?

Catch a Fish
"Row, Row, Row Your Boat"

Catch, catch, catch a fish,
hook it on your line.
Reel it, reel it, reel it, reel it
This one will be mine.

Way Down in the Deep Blue Ocean
"Swanee River"

Way down in the deep blue ocean,
Miles from the shore,
There lives a little hammerhead shark,
Swimming near the floor.
All his friends are glad to see him,
As they go and play,
Down in the deep blue ocean,
Far, far away.

In the Deep Blue Sea
(Yankee Doodle)

Once I saw an octopus
In the deep blue sea
I called, "Mr. Octopus,
Oh, won't you swim with me?"
Out came his tentacles,
So very long and straight
One,two, three, four, five and six
and seven and eight.

Eight Tentacles
(Litle White Duck)

There are eight tentacles
Swimming in the ocean,
eight tentacles making a commontion
Who could belong to so many feet?
The octopus does and they help him eat
He has eight tentacles swimming in the ocean
swim, swim, swim

Gertie the Goldfish
(sorry I can't help with the tune)
Smack - smack lips like kissing.

Gertie the Goldfish goes
smack, smack, smack
She looks at me and goes like
smack, smack, smack,
She doesn't laugh, doesn't sing
doesn't do anything
Just blows big kisses like this
Smack , smack, smack, smack

1,2,3,4,5
I Caught a Fish Alive
(Slightly different than the original)

1,2,3,4,5
I caught some fish alive
6,7,8,9,10
I caught some fish again
Why should you let them go?
Because they like to swim, you know
I'll let them swim away,
SoI can fish another day
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1
(This is from mailbox magazine.
I cut small fish out of paper.
The children pick them up as we count from 1-10
and then they put them back on the carpet as we count down)

Five Little Fish

One little fishy swimming in the ocean blue
Here comes another one, then there were two.
Two little fishies swimming in the sea.
Here comes another one, then there were three
Three little fishies, swimming near the shore.
Here comes another one, then there were four.
Four little fishies, swimming around and dive
Here comes another one and now there are five
Here comes a shark, looking for some fun
Look out little fishies and away they run.

Fish Fingerplay

A golden fish went swimming by
He swam down low, he swam up high
He wriggled his fins and shook his scales
and swishes his graceful golden tail.

Octopus Fingerplay

An octopus is sleeping at the bottom of the sea
Her eyes are closed up tightly
She can't see you or me
But if she sense danger
her eyes will open wide
Then she'll quickly swim away
Back to her hole and hide

Five Little Crabs

One little crab, lonely and blue,
It met another crab, now there are two
Two little crabs living near the sea
Out crawled another, now there are three.
Three little crabs went off to explore,
They soon found another now there are four
Four little crabs, glad to be alive
They found a new friend, now there are five
Five little crabs went for a walk,
and all at once they spied a rock
Now five little crabs are happy as can be,
Under a rock by the deep blue sea.
