Flexi-Wexi Day
Things are happening in a different way!
A song written for a camp day that went awry with weather and other happenings. About being flexible and that sometime intentions go out the window. Includes a "zipper part" of the song that allows you to to name other types of days, including happy-dappy, Snowy-woaey, etc. Opportunity for breathing and big body movement at the end.
When introducing this song, Frolic the Fox talks about all the plans going "Flopsy Wopsy". There is movement in this song. Please see attached video!
I love to introduce this song by explaining that sometimes we have all the plans and they go flopsy wopsy. Then we turn into a blade of grass to become flexi-wexi!
I also love to follow this song with the "Good Googa Mooga" song! Good Googa-Mooga is about finding a nourishing actifvity we can do to help us feel good, then doing it!
Lyrics with (Movement)
Sometimes things don’t go the way we expect.
We have all the plans!
(Hands go Up in a "Y" and shake with each word "all the plans")
And things feel solid as a tree!
(Arms up like branches),
But then go flopsy-wopsy!
(Arms go limp and flop from side to side)
So then we get to choose how to be flexi-wexi,
Like a blade of grass!
(Arms up to the ceiling, fingers touching)
That is blowing in the wind!
(Make sound of wind blowing, bending left and right a few times)
And we can say:
It’s a flexi-wexi day today,
(Arms up, fingers touch)
Things are happening in a different way,
(Flex left to right)
And the things that we thought we would do
(Branch arms)
Went...
(Deep breath, raising arms up to the ceiling)
Blblblblblblbl! (3x)
(Lowering hands to the floor and making silly noises with mouth)
