Lyrics (Preview)

Goes the garden snail.
Slowly, slowly, very slowly
Up the wooden rail.

Quickly, quickly, very quickly
Buzzing through the trees.

Try This..
Creep your fingers slowly like snails climbing up an arm.

“Can you move even slower?”
“Can you go even faster?”
It’s a brilliant way to explore tempo through play.
