Oh Sunny Sun: Action Song

Ms. Christina demonstrates “Oh Sunny Sun,” a gender-neutral update to the classic children’s action song, “Oh Mister Sun.” 

Lyrics: 

Oh sunny sun, sun 

Sunny golden sun 

Please shine down on me 

Oh sunny sun, sun 

Sunny golden sun 

Hiding behind a tree 

These little children are asking you 

To please come out so we can play with you 

Oh sunny sun, sun 

Sunny golden sun 

Please shine down on, please shine down on,

Please shine down on me!

Skills and benefits:

Vocabulary, phonological awareness, movement.

Miss Kate (the Lavender Librarian) had so much fun with Ms. Christina’s video that she made her own!
