I've recently discovered there are so many great albums of jazz music for kids. This rhyme is a fun way to make jazz-ish music together. This is an echo song (echoes in parantheses). Start with a slow rhythm either clapping, using rhythm sticks, or egg shakers. Progressively get faster, louder, or higher, however long it takes to get some sillies out.
Copy Cat Jazz is the name of the game.
Whatever I scat, you do the same!
Bop (Bop)
Be bop (be bop)
Be bop boo (Be bop boo)
Be bop diddly dop (Be bop diddly dop)
Be bop diddly dop doo! (Be bop diddly dop do!)
