Skinamarinky Dinky Dink

Description

The song’s title is meaningless. It’s more of a tongue twister that’s pleasing to the ears, probably because it’s associated with a happy children’s song. This was introduced as one of the theme songs of The Elephant Show in the 80’s. Until now, it has always been a favorite of kids as well as adults.

The characters in the video below do the gestures as they sing the song. Watch it and gain playful ideas on how to dance with your students.

Song lyics:
Skinamarinky dinky dink
Skinamarink a doo, I love you

Skinamarinky dinky dink
Skinamarink a doo, I love you

I love you in the morning
and in the afternoon,
I love you in the evening
and underneath the moon!

So, Skinamarinky dinky dink
Skinamarink a doo,
I love you

and you and you and you and
you and you and YOU!
