  2. A Big Ship Sailing

    Share Share Post
    All the children get into a big line and the child at the beginning of the line holds her hand at a big tree and all the children go under the child's arm and say. "A big ship sails from tally-ally-e tally-ally-e tally-ally-e early in the morning and the children say tally-ally-e until the end of the line. We get in a bundle and we dance up and down together and say "a bundle of rags a bundle of rags" and then we all fall down. We have great fun trying to get up again.
