Activity/Song: If you Like the Color...
If you like the color red clap your hands.
If you like the color red clap your hands.
If you like the color red and don't want to go to bed
If you like the color red clap your hands.

If you like the color green jump up and down.
(repeat)
If you like the color green and you don't like to being mean
If you like the color green jump up and down.

If you like the color blue stomp your feet.
(repeat)
If you like the color blue and you wear some silly shoes
If you like the color blue stomp your feet.

If you like the color yellow touch your toes.
(repeat)
If you like the color yellow and you're feeling kinda mellow
If you like the color yellow touch your toes.

If you like the color purple spin around.
(repeat)
If you like the color purple and spinning around in circles
If you like the color purple spin around.

If you like the color pink do a dance.
(repeat)
If you like the color pink and you really like to think
If you like the color pink do a dance.
