A great song for meeting friends!

Whether it is the exhilaration a toddler feels when beating on a bevy of kitchen pots, or the way a familiar tune can soothe a crying infant, music is a powerful influence in every child's life.

In addition to the joy it brings, music is also important to a child's growth by strengthening the ability to concentrate, increasing coordination through movement, and encouraging language development through exposure to new words and patterns.

Step-by-Step:
Shake another hand, shake a hand next to ya,
Shake another hand and sing along!
Shake another hand, shake a hand next to ya,
Shake another hand, and sing...and sing this song!

Chorus:
Ah la la la la la le lu ya, Ah la la la la le lu ya!
Ah la la la la la le lu ya, Ah la la la la le, alleluia!

Other verses:
Touch another toe
Pat another back
Touch another nose
