February 2014: PBnDeb Song of the Month

It's February, winter is dragging on, except in California. We could actually use more SNOW! By this time many people have been housebound for awhile and are in need of adventure. Here's a fun tune to share with your child about not sitting around in a mopey mood, but getting outside and seeing what fun can be found right there in your neighborhood.

This song is for all housebound Moms, Dads and Kids! Adventure is all around you...

Let’s Go For a Ride
© 2004 Snyder and Bynoe

Too many days

I’m sitting in my room

Feeling really bored

Sort of crabby, grumpy too

Want to shake myself awake

Don’t want to sit and fret – no way!

I think I’ll go put on my clothes and

Welcome in the day.

Let’s go for a ride!

Hang out in the countryside.

Open up your mind --

See what magic we can find.

Rode my bike real fast

Flew over Billy Goats Gruff!

Found a lady bug to dance with

Met a dog that licked too rough

I jumped into a big cool lake

Then I spotted something green

I swam right out, caught me a frog

And stuck him in my jeans.

Let’s go for a ride!

Hang out in the countryside.

Open up your mind --

See what magic we can find.

Let’s go for a ride!

Hang out in the countryside.

Open up your mind --

See what magic we can find.

SPOKEN [You know its funny but after I after I let that frog go and it hopped away.  I was feelin’ like happy.  And I realized whenever I feel blue or cranky or grumpy, I’m not gonna give into that feeling.  I’m gonna shake myself awake get out and see what I can see!]

SUNG [Out in the world or here at home I know I can be

So happy, If I shake myself awake and see all I can see.]

Let’s go for a ride!

Hang out in the countryside.

Open up your mind --

See what magic we can find.
