An echo song that’s great for indicating a transition, a change of routine or a “message” that a large group of children need to hear!

One song, many ways:
- This is an easy “repeat after me” or “echo” song - it can be used to gather a group of children, to turn their attention to you or to indicate the next part of activities or routine that is about to happen.
- Using the same repetitive melody will build the children’s melodic memory and, the more it is sung, the more children will know that this melody signifies a “message” that needs to be heard!
Lyrics:
Oh my [children will echo]
No more pie! [children will echo]
