The song below is a fun way of teaching students the value of eating fruits and vegetables.
Boys and Girls, this is Mambo number five.
One, two, three, four, five, eat your five a day and you'll be just fine,
To the market for some peas and bananas
The boys want sweets, but the girls don't wanna..
5 a day like I had last week.
I must stay healthy and not get weak.
I like apples, bananas, carrots and pears,
And as I continue, you know they're getting better.
So what can I do? I beg you my teacher.
Eat your 5 a day and you'll be sure to please her
Anything good, so that I can play all day,
So please mom give me 5 a day.
(chorus)
A little bit of strawberries in my life,
A little bit of broccoli on the side.
A little bit of lettuce is all I need,
A little bit of cauliflower is all I eat.
A little bit of raisins in the sun,
Make grapes a snack so fun.
A little bit of celery here I am,
A little bit of vitamins to be a strong man / woman!!!!!!!!
Mambo number five.
Jump up and down and move it all around.
Shake your head to the sound, put your hands on the ground.
Take one step left and one step right.
One to the front and one to the side.
Clap your hands once and clap your hands twice
And if it looks like this then you're doing it right.
(chorus)
I eat this all to be a strong kid.
So I can work and I can play .
I can have so much energy all day.
Mambo number five.
(chorus)
