“Dingle Dangle Scarecrow” (sometimes sung as Dinge Dangle Scarecrow) is a lively children’s action song that encourages movement, imagination, and rhythm. It’s often used in early childhood settings to get kids up and moving while practicing listening skills.
When all the cows were sleeping
And the sun had gone to bed
Up jumped the scarecrow
And this is what he said
I'm a dingle, dangle scarecrow
With a flippy floppy hat
I can shake my hands like this
And shake my feet like that
When all the hens were roosting
And the moon behind the cloud
Up jumped the scarecrow
And shouted very loud
I'm a dingle, dangle scarecrow
With a flippy floppy hat
I can shake my hands like this
And shake my feet like that
