5. Action song or poem: ‘Hedgehogs Sleeping’ written by Lucy Milan Davis
Hedgehogs sleeping in the wintertime. Barely moving, barely breathing,
Body is freezing in the wintertime.
Then... winter ends and they awaken,
And move around in their hedgehoggy way.
Chipmunks sleeping in the wintertime. Barely moving, barely breathing,
Body is freezing in the wintertime.
Then... winter ends and they awaken, And move around in their chipmunky way.
Snakes sleeping in the wintertime. Barely moving, barely breathing
Body is freezing in the wintertime. Then... winter ends and they awaken, And move around in their snakey way.
Bats sleeping in the wintertime. Barely moving, barely breathing Body is freezing in the wintertime. Then... winter ends and they awaken, And move around in their batty way.
