LYRICS: (Actions: During the choruses pretend to mold clay by pressing hands together. Spin when appropriate and act out the story such as bouncing, digging and being a tree that grows branches.) Chorus: Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. I made my first dreidel out of some clay. I painted on symbols then I put it away. The clay had all hardened and the paint was all dried. I looked at my dreidel and what a surprise! Chorus: Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. The dreidel was spinning, spinning all by itself. I watched in amazement as it spun off the shelf. It was spinning so fast then that it looked like a top, but there was one problem. It just wouldn’t stop. Chorus: Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. It spun to the kitchen, then it bounced on the floor. Flew right by my window, then right out the door. It spun down the stairs then but it didn’t go far. It just started digging a big hole in my yard. Chorus: Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. The digging was over. Things quieted down. The dreidel had planted itself in the ground. Through spring and then summer, and then into fall, the dreidel was growing to about ten feet tall. Chorus: Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. The dreidel grew branches and then grew some more and from all those branches grew dreidels galore. This story is silly but it never ends for now we have dreidels for all of our friends. Chorus: Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play. Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay and when it’s dried and ready, oh dreidel we will play.
