On Safari

On Safari is a fun song about the animals you might see if you went on a safari in Africa. You’ll learn lots of animal signs, and some animal facts too - did you know a group of hippos are called a bloat? This is a great song to do with your group - you can make it really theatrical by including some animal actions. You could even add in some animal puppets or sounds to make it more inclusive for everyone to take part. 

Take care with the rhythm of this song as it has short snappy rhythms. You could try clapping the rhythm before adding the words and signs when learning the song. 

You can watch a full version of this song being performed by one of our leaders below.

We’ve also created a teaching video of the full song for you to use alongside this resource pack.
