Motorboat, oh, motorboat,
You putt-putt-putt all day!

Have You Ever Seen A Sailboat? - sung to "Did You Ever See A Lassie?"
Have you ever seen a sailboat,
A sailboat, a sailboat?
Have you ever seen a sailboat
Waving its sail?

Wave this way and that way,
Wave that way and this way.
Have you ever seen a sailboat
Waving its sail?

Rowing - sung to "Row, Row, Row Your Boat"
Waves, waves, back and forth,
Rock the boat all day.
(move hands like waves)
We row and row so we can go
Somewhere far away
(pretend to row boat)

Boats Out In The Sea - sung to "The Farmer In The Dell"
Boats out in the sea.
Boats out in the sea.
Float up and down and all around.
Boats out in sea.

Boat Game: 

This is an activity we do while waiting for the bus to come. The children sit in a circle which we pretend is a boat. We sing “Row, row, row you boat”. Then, since I’m the captain, I shout out a child’s name and say, “Kelly, overboard!” Then that child jumps in the middle of the circle and pretends to swim. All of the rest of us throw in a pretend line and begin pulling. As we are “pullling we say ” 1-2-3-4-5 she’s/he’s alive!! The child in the middle then take his seat. We repeat this until everyone has had a turn to jump overboard.
