Feltboard: Crown Jewels
The royal queen wears a crown.
It sits upon her head.
Let’s add our first shiny jewel.
A beautiful ruby Red.
This queen crown is lovely.
I’m sure you’ll say it’s true!
We’ll add another jewel.
A beautiful sapphire Blue.
As the queen sits on her throne.
Her crown will shine so bright!
Let’s add another jewel.
This Orange one is just right!
This crown lets everybody know.
The queen is ‘Her Royal Highness’.
Let’s add this shiny Purple jewel.
To make this crown the finest!
And now, we’ve almost finished.
The most beautiful crown you’ve seen.
Let’s add the last bright jewel.
This lovely emerald Green.
The queen is oh so happy.
To wear this crown of gold.
Each jewel in place makes her crown.
A wonderful sight to behold!

(Tune: Skip to My Lou)
Curtsy like a princess just like so.
Curtsy like a princess just like so.
Curtsy like a princess just like so.
Curtsy like a princess!
Bow like a prince just like so…
Juggle like a jester just like so…
Fly like a fairy just like so…
Roar like a dragon, just like so…
