Page 4 - Minnie Mouse One Hour

plays ‘Sleeping Bunnies’. We’re all going to be Minnie Mouse and go to sleep and when we wake up, we are going to dance all around the room.”
Verse:
See Minnie Mouse sleeping, (the children lie down, pretending to sleep) Till it's nearly noon.
Shall we wake her,
With a merry tune?
She’s so still.
Is she ill? "Wake up Minnie Mouse!” (the children wake up)
Chorus:
Dance Minnie Mouse, dance, dance, dance, (everyone dances) Dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance,
Dance Minnie Mouse, dance, dance, dance,
Dance, dance, dance. X 2
“Back to sleep, back to sleep! Now can anyone tell me who helps Minnie to run her Bowtique? That’s right, it’s Daisy Duck! This time we’re all going to be Daisy and when we wake up, we are going to waddle around the room.”
Verse:
See Daisy Duck sleeping, (the children lie down, pretending to sleep) Till it's nearly noon.
Shall we wake her,
With a merry tune?
She’s so still.
Is she ill? "Wake up Daisy Duck!” (the children wake up)
Chorus:
Waddle Daisy Duck, waddle, waddle, waddle, (everyone waddles around the room in the same direction)
Waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle.
Waddle Daisy Duck, waddle, waddle, waddle,
Waddle, Waddle, Waddle. X 2
Next, ask a volunteer (try asking the birthday child first) to think of an animal that everyone can be and make up a new verse about that animal. E.g. See the bunnies sleeping... hop little bunnies, see the crocodiles sleeping... snap little crocodiles or see the jelly fish sleeping... wobble little jelly fish etc. Repeat at least two more times.
If you need to join in on the actions to encourage them then please do so. Otherwise, you should clap along as you sing the chorus to help maintain energy.
9. PARACHUTE ACTIVITY WITH HIDING: ‘Minnie Mouse is Hiding’ (sung to the traditional tune of ‘Someone is Hiding’)
“Minnie Mouse loves to play Hide and Seek, so let’s play Hide and Seek with the parachute!” The children sit around the imaginary parachute and move it from side to side to the pulse for the first two lines. For each, “Peek-a-boo!” the children quickly lift the imaginary parachute up high into the air and then down again on “I see you!” Repeat the song with the real parachute. Next choose two or three children (including the birthday child) pretend to be Minnie and curl up and hide underneath the parachute. Repeat the song and for each, “Peek-a-boo!” you reveal the hidden children. Repeat until every child has had a turn. Once the game has been played a few times, encourage the children to sing the words with you. If you have a party assistant or if there is a willing parent nearby, ask them to hold the opposite end of the parachute and encourage the children to all go under together as
you sing the song one final time.
