Our fun Hokey Pokey dance for children takes you through all different Hokey Pokey musical styles and dance moves. Hokey Pokey to Island, Hip- Hop, Rock and Roll and Country styles of music and movements. A fun brain break song that builds brain and body connections of left and right, fast and slow as well as directional words.
I use my left side when I say right, and my right side when I say left, as a mirror image for children to follow along with their corresponding side to make it easier to follow.



Lyrics
Everyone come down to the islands
Let's sing and dance the Hokey Pokey

You put your right arm in
You put your right arm out
You put your right arm in and you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

You put your left arm in
You put your left arm out
You put your left arm in and you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Aww, you're doing great
Here we go, your right leg
You put your right leg in
You put your right leg out
You put your right leg in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Left leg
You put your left leg in
You put your left leg out,
You put your left leg in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Yo, yo, yo,
Feel the music from the street
Let's do the Hokey Pokey to the rap beat
You put your right hip in
You put your right hip out
You put your right hip in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

You put your left hip in
You put your left hip out
You put your left hip in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Yo, yo feel the beat with your whole self
You put your whole self in
You put your whole self out
You put your whole self in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Alright let's Rock and Roll now
Get your guitars and let's move
You put your right side in
You put your right side out
You put your right side in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Left side
You put your left side in
You put your left side out
You put your left side in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Faster, right shoulder
You put your right shoulder in
You put your right shoulder out
You put your right shoulder in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Left shoulder
You put your left shoulder in
You put your left shoulder out
You put your left shoulder in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

You're doing great
I'm all shook up
Now your whole self in slow motion
You put your whole self in
You put your whole self out
You put your whole self in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about

Country, ye-haw!
You put your whole self in
Your whole self out
Your whole self in and you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, turn yourself around
You put your whole self in
You put your whole self out
You put your whole self in and then you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey, you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about
Ye-haw!
That's what it's all about
Sooey!
That's what it's all about
Ye-haw!
