Splashing In The Puddles! Rainy Day Songs

September 20, 2022 By Sara Mullett 7 Comments

Splashing in the Puddles is the liveliest one of our rainy day songs, so if you’re looking for a more boisterous inside activity this one’s a great way to get everyone moving with some imaginative movement thrown in.

  • First, tell the children to get ready in their pretend welly boots and raincoats of course this involves a lot of exaggerated miming getting dressed!
  • Then they put their imaginary umbrellas up over their heads and they’ll love describing what colour their’s is!
  • Then everyone stamps around the room together as you all sing the song as energetically as you can!

Alternatively, if you’re feeling brave and you find yourselves outside on a rainy day, you can do it for real, but do make sure you’ve got your real coat and boots on!

For more ideas on how to use the Splashing in the Puddles rainy day songs in a rain themed music lesson, check out my RAIN lesson plan.

                                     Words for Splashing in the Puddles

Splashing in the puddles, splashing in the puddles,splashing in the puddles, (stamp around the room)

But don’t let Mummy see!  (finger to lips like a secret)

*

Walking through the raindrops, walking through the raindrops, walking through the raindrops,

(hold umbrellas overhead)  Let’s hope we don’t get wet! (wag one finger)

* 

Stamping in the gutters, stamping in the gutters, stamping in the gutters, (stamp along in a line)

But don’t let Mummy see! (finger to lips like a secret)

(encourage any further improvised verses!)
