Watch CLICKETY-CLACK -Animal Song Video about dolphins

Category: Animal Song Videos

Published: Friday, May 01, 2009

Hi Everyone. This video for kids has photos of dolphins (thanks to NOAA), the song "Clickety-Clack" and the lyrics to the song so that you can sing along. I love seeing dolphins off the coast of California where I live. I hope you enjoy our video for kids as much as I enjoyed making it.  -Birdsong 

 

I got my idea for my animal song "Clickety-Clack" when I learned that dolphins make clicking and clacking sounds to communicate with each other and to find objects in the ocean. This is how it works: They make a sound and the sound quickly travels through the water. When the sound hits an object in the sea, the sound bounces back to the dolphin and makes a picture of the object in the dolphin's mind. This is called "echolocation." The echoing sound helps dolphins find food, other dolphins to play with, boats and objects in the sea. I thought that was pretty interesting, so I decided to write a song about it. "Clickety-Clack" is my first song on the CD "IF I WERE A FISH and other Ocean Songs for Kids"   -Birdsong

What fun! And how important to nurture a positive, caring attitude toward the earth, and its oceans. Keep up the good work (and play).

Dear Friends. Check out this video of a kayaker's amazing encounter with a blue whale, the largest animal on Earth. It gives you a close-up look at just how big and magnificent these creatures are. I felt excited and tingly inside when I watched this. You can learn just how big a blue whale by listening to my song So Big! Blue Whale! on our CD IF I WERE A FISH and other Ocean Songs for Kids by Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders®. I wrote this song as a tribute to the world's largest animal. See if you can if you can find facts about a blue whale's lungs, heart and tongue in the song! (The lyrics to the song are below.)

Dear Friends. This is a fun National Geographic kids' video about dolphins. Here you will see a pod of dolphins using their sounds to locate large schools of anchovies. After locating the fish, they then use dolphin teamwork to catch the anchovies for dinner. Echolation and cooperation are the names of the game in this educational kids video. You can watch more natiuonal geographic videos at National Geographic Kids Online. You can also watch my animal song video about dolphins and echolocation, called Clickety Clack, in a previous blog post.
