Story Behind The Song
We wanted to write a song about the beauty of the Earth for young children.
Song Description
Created on the synthesizer with a Native American beat and shakers with natural sound effects. Become one with the Earth while you dance to this beautiful music. Pretend to be a seal, a frog, a bird, a worm, trees, fish, a horse, a duck, clouds and feel the love. Excellent for dancing and dramatic play.

Lyrics
The Earth Dance
Do the dance
Of the Earth, Sea & Sky
Spread your wings
Fly--fly!!
Do the dance
Of the Earth, Sea & Sky
With a smile
A rainbow wide!!
Grow like a flower
Up to the sun,
Spin like the planets
One by one,
Sway like the trees
In a breeze,
Swim like a fish
In the big blue sea!
(REFRAIN)
Clap like a seal
On an icy floe,
Hop like a frog
From head to toe,
Wiggle like a worm
On the ground,
Now join hands
And circle round!
(REFRAIN)
Trot like a horse,
On a grassy plain,
Waddle like a duck
In the rain,
Float like a cloud
In a sky of blue,
Sing to the earth
We love you!!
(REFRAIN)
