A song to act out. Watch the video and learn the song, but if you want to learn how to dance it, look at this video where you can see a group of English school children dancing to this song: dancing the Hokey Pokey.

The song is played in a circle, with everybody putting their right hand, etc. inside and outside the circle. You can see detailed instructions here: Hokey Pokey.

(Here's a song that you can act out. Come on, follow me!)

You put your right foot in
You put your right foot out
You put your right foot in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

You put your left foot in
You put your left foot out
You put your left foot in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

You put your right hand in
You put your right hand out
You put your right hand in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

You put your left hand in
You put your left hand out
You put your left hand in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

(so, we've done the feet and the hands, now we're gonna try something different. Are you ready? Come on guys, here we go!)

You put your head in
You put your head out
You put your head in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

You put your whole self in
You put your whole self out
You put your whole self in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

(That was fun. I hope you enjoyed it. Well, we'll play together some other time, kids. Bye!)
