Alliterations Develop Awareness of Beginning Sounds
Children can follow children on the recording and have fun acting out some of the movements: pig rolls & plays; lizard leaps; snails slide; worm wiggles; caterpillar crawls; diving dolphin.

Ask the children - what’s the same in most of the sentences of words (i.e. pink pig plays, pen - they all start with the letter p).

Chorus
Clap your hands to the beat
Sing these tongue twisters with me

Pink pig plays in his pen
Pink pig plays in his pen
Plays, plays in his pen
Plays, plays in his pen

Little lizard leaps by the lake
Little lizard leaps by the lake
Leaps, leaps by the lake
Leaps, leaps by the lake

Slithery snails slide so slow
Slithery snails slide so slow
Slide, slide, slide so slow
Slide, slide, slide so slow

Repeat chorus
Wiggly worm wiggles in the water
Wiggly worm wiggles in the water
Wiggles, wiggles, wiggles in the water
Wiggles, wiggles, wiggles in the water

Creeping caterpillar crawls by the creek
Creeping caterpillar crawls by the creek
Crawls, crawls by the creek
Crawls, crawls by the creek

Diving dolphin dives so deep
Diving dolphin dives so deep
Dives, dives, dives so deep
Dives, dives, dives so deep

Repeat Chorus
