This song is available on The Learning Station's "Literacy in Motion."

 This song can be used as an extension activity for Dr. Seuss' book, Green Eggs and Ham.
     Begin by splitting the participants into two groups. The first group is everyone who likes their eggs fried nice and brown. The second group likes their eggs tuned upside down.
     The first group stands and then sits quickly when we sing “flip em” and the second group stands and sits quickly when we sing “flop em.”
     Everyone sits and taps their knees with their hands to the beat, except when standing.

Green eggs and ham
Green eggs and ham
I like mine fried nice and brown.
I like mine turned upside down.

Green eggs and ham
Green eggs and ham
Flip them, flop them,
Don’t drop them.
