about

There Was a Crocodile is a popular camp song with actions that can enhance memory and internal aural skills in a fun way. Every time children sing a new verse, they should omit one more animal, while still doing the actions. Continue until all the animals have been taken out of the song, and only the motions for them remain. It is great for class teachers to take a quick energy break in the classroom while learning about animals.

lyrics

🎶 There Was a Crocodile - Lyrics!

There was a crocodile (chomping motion with arms)
An orangutan (monkey action)
A flying eagle (flying arms)
And a silvery fish (hands motion)
A bunny (make rabbit ears)
A beaver (make beaver teeth)
A big elephant! (make elephant trunk )
Na na na na na, na na na na na na na! (turn around)...🎶
