What’s one of the most important pieces of clothing to bring to the beach? Why, flip flops, of course! Without flip flops it’s nearly impossible to walk across that crazy hot sand. Today is National Flip Flop Day–a day to celebrate this insubstantial footwear that provides chiropractors with so much business. 🙂
Check out the super beachwear song below! It’s one of my favorites–and it’s also one of the ideas found in The Mailbox® Gold. What’s The Mailbox® Gold? It’s our fabulous monthly online magazine plus complete access to over 40,000 ideas in our online library. You’ll be able to easily find activities and printables on the topics and themes you need. And since it’s created by The Mailbox, you’ll know that it was created by teachers and professionally edited as well!

Enjoy!

*On the fourth line of the song, have students curl their thumbs and index fingers around their eyes so they resemble sunglasses. Continue with the following verses: a sun hat (touch head), sunscreen (rub arm), flip-flops (alternate lifting flattened hands)
I love the song. My Day Care Director loves that I have songsfor various themes. This one will be great for our beach week.
