The Frog stomps around the room to the beat of the song. The student should freeze at the end of the song and select another student to be the frog.</p> https://meettheminmusic.com/songs/go-round-the-mountain/ Thu, 02 Apr 2026 21:43:00 +0000 https://meettheminmusic.com/songs/go-round-the-mountain/ <div class="callout"> <p class="callout-title"></p> This is a favorite game with my students but it makes me incredibly dizzy! </div> <p>This is the way I memorized the song years ago. It may not be &ldquo;true&rdquo; but it is right to my ear! The version others use is notated below.</p> <p><strong><u>Activity:</u></strong></p> <p>Build a circle of drums. I like to make &ldquo;drum mountain&rdquo; out of my tubanos with the teacher drum in the middle. March around the drum mountain, hitting the next drum on beat 1. Invite a student up to join you BUT they must march on the opposite side of the circle from you.</p>
