20 Favorite Brain Break Songs

Brain Breaks are so important in the classroom!  Most adults don't like to sit for long periods of time so imagine how hard it is for children.  We need to get them up and moving as often as possible.  Playing music with movement is a perfect way to help children get their jiggles out and be focused to continue learning.

  Here are 20 of my favorite Brain Break songs that children of all ages are sure to love.  I have even heard of high school teachers playing some of these songs.

1) Jamaican Dance
2) Move and Freeze
3) Happy Dance
4) Chili Chili
5) A Turkey Dance
6) Penguin Song

10)From Your Seat
11)Boom Chicka Boom
12)Get Funky
