Substitute a hand clap for the letter S as you
sing the song another time.
Repeat again with clap-clap substituted for S-A
continue substituting claps for letters until you are clapping out the entire
name.
I'm a little fish, I like to swim
(put hands in prayer position facing away from you... They're the fish. Wiggle them
back and forth like a fish swimming through the water.)
You
can't catch me, 'cause I have fins
(shake finger back and forth "no no no")
When
I swim past my friends, I hear them say
(put hand to ear like you're listening)
Stop your
swimming and come and play!
(make a STOP gesture with hand and then jump up in the air)
