About this deal

Verse 1 : they hold hands in a long line. The child at the end (Arch) holds one hand against a wall to make an arch; the child at the other end is Leader. As they sing the first verse (repeating as often as necessary), Leader leads the line through the Arch. When Arch goes under his or her own arm, he or she twists round with arms crossed. Leader then takes the line through the arch formed between Arch and his or her partner, and so on. This continues until all the children have twisted round and crossed arms. Leader then crosses arms and joins hands with Arch to form a ring. Sound discrimination: traffic sounds , horns honking , watery sounds , waves crashing , beach sounds , seagull screeching , digging sounds . She also collaborated with her daughter, Clara Vulliamy, on the Dixie O'Day series; which saw Shirley with an illustrator for the first time with Shirley writing the text and Clara creating the illustrations. Help the children to clap with a steady beat. Once they are familiar with the song they could try the traditional game (it works best if adults are Arch and Leader).
