Just as hello songs are important for getting your preschool music class off to a predictable start, goodbye songs are also important for wrapping up your class. They give your students a clear and consistent ending after a busy class.
One of my favorite goodbye songs is See You Later, Alligator, sung to the tune of Clementine.
Here are the lyrics:
See you later, alligator,
After a while, crocodile,
Blow a kiss, jellyfish.
Give a hug, ladybug,
See you soon, big baboon,
Out the door, dinosaur,
Take care, polar bear,
Wave goodbye, butterfly.
