A Sailor Went to Sea, Sea, Sea

Here is a traditional clapping/rhythm song that doubles as a tongue twister. Babies can pat their knees, little kids can make the rhythm more challenging by alternating claps and pats, and bigger kids can try the more complex pattern. This song is also a skip rope song. Another way to sing this song is to begin slowly and speed up every verse. LYRICS: A sailor went to sea, sea, sea To see what she could see, see, see But all that she could see, see, see Was the bottom of the big blue sea, sea, sea
