opposite songs


 Share

Recommended Posts

OK in the nursery each morning we try and sing a number song which is easy there are so many and an opposite song which I am stumped on. I'm in the preschool room so the children are 3-5yrs. The only one I know is

Roly poly sugar baby push push push

Roly poly sugar baby pull pull pull

Roly poly sugar baby out out out

Roly poly sugar baby in in in

Roly poly sugar baby fast fast fast

Roly poly sugar baby slow slow slow

 

any ideas really welcome.

thing is some songs only have one or two opposites, rather than the example you have given.  I,e, pease porridge hot, pease porridge cold, or Polly put the kettle and sukey take it off again, or even wind the bobbin up, where they are doing forward and backward motions with hands, or pointing up and down. or hokey cokey putting things in or out!

 

you tube seem to have a few have you checked on there?

Agree with Panders - most songs/action games that I can think of only have a few opposites......

Dingle dangle scarecrow - first verse is 'loud', in the second verse he 'whispers very soft'

We also sing songs quietly, slowly, loudly, fast...….

I'll keep thinking (although it hurts my brain xD)
