SONG LYRICS

Song 1

Grab your chalk and marker,
And let’s go!
Use your imagination,
And let the art flow!

Express yourself,
Create and play!
Make it silly or smart,
You can do it your way.
Draw a line,
Up and down.
Make it square,
Make it round.
Shapes and colors
are everywhere!

Song 3

Pictures are made,
With colors and shapes –

Come on, let’s make,
Circles and squares,
Rectangles, too.
It’s fun to draw;
Yes, it’s fun to do.
