My Guinea Pig
From Plank Road Publishing
by Sean GillHere's a fun, upbeat tune for your pet-loving students. Guinea pigs are popular first pets due to their docile nature and sometimes comical behavior. This song lets your students sing about a guinea pig's two favorite activities: eating and sleeping! Or adapt the lyrics for other pets your students may have: "My kitty cat says meow meow" or "My puppy dog says woof woof."
As an extension of this song, if your school allows such things, let students bring their guinea pigs (or other pets you're singing about) to class, or invite them to share photos or videos of their fuzzy buddies instead. (from Music K-8, Vol. 20, No. 5)
