Whirl-Owl
MOVE THEN STOP — *spin the big whirly move when it's GO, then plant your feet and hold still the moment it's stop.*
Whirl-Owl Spins and Stops
In Wiggle Meadow lives Whirl-Owl, a round fluffy owl who loves to twirl. When the grown-up says GO, Whirl-Owl spins around — whirl, whirl, whirl!
Can YOU spin like Whirl-Owl? Round… and round… and round! Wheee!
And now the strong part. When the grown-up says FREEZE… Whirl-Owl plants both feet and stops. No more spinning. Just a calm, still owl, blinking softly.
Can you FREEZE like Whirl-Owl? Feet down. Wings still. Stand as steady as a tree. Wonderful!
Say it with a grown-up: “Spin like Owl, round and round — then stop still without a sound.”
Spinning makes you giggle, and stopping makes you strong. When the whirl slows down, the world holds still again. Let’s play once more: GO… whirl, whirl, whirl… and FREEZE!
