SONG: A Big Sea Star (a self-soothing song)

Date: 27/03/2020

Do you ever get so mad...or excited...or scared that you don't feel like yourself anymore? How do you calm down?

Cindy Chuan is an Occupational Therapist at Your Kids OT and she wrote a great blog post called "QUICK WAYS TO CALM DOWN! Sea life sensory solutions!"  The amazing librarian fairies over at Jbrary took some of Cindy's self-soothing skills, put them to music, and called it "A Big Sea Star!"  It's one of my favourite self-soothing songs. Several of my storytime families have asked for a a recording, so here it is with very giant thanks to both Cindy and Jbrary :)

I encourage families to check out everything both of these great organizations have to offer!

LYRICS:
A big sea star
A big sea star 
A little cuddle clam
And a big sea star 
A big sea star
A big sea star 
A little cuddle clam
And a big sea star 
A pufferfish! 
A pufferfish!
A little cuddle clam
And a big sea star
