The Magic Penny
The Magic Penny is an old tune. But I like to use it around Valentine's Day and Lincoln's birthday.
It depends on your students, but in my case it works well with fourth graders and younger.
It begins: "Love is something if you give it away..."
I made a penny about 6-8 inches in diameter out of foam core. To use it with the song, I have the children stand in a line with their hands behind them. They have to stand close and this might be a problem for some...stick them on the ends. They pass the penny behind their backs until the song stops. The song can pause anywhere you decide. The person that is "it" ("it" faces the group, and observes the line as they pass the penny, of course "it" won't see much, but maybe?) has to guess who is holding the penny when the music stops.
Above is the first verse to the song. This preview is from sheetmusicplus.com
