Keith Baker's 2007 book Hickory Dickory Dock is an extended version of the nursery rhyme. It can be fun inspiration for a new dance or warm up in preschool and kindergarten dance classes.
With each strike of the clock - at 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - a different animal is moving about. Let your imagination and playfulness create a new dance for your students. "Hickory dickory dock, a hare hopped over the clock. The clock struck four....he hopped some more! Hickory dickory dock."
I am a big proponent for incorporating rhymes into dance classes - for the playfulness of them as well as the rhythms and cultural importance of nursery rhymes.
Have fun!
