Mole at the Seaside
 
Hi,
 
I am going to be working with a book called "Mole at the Seaside" in January.  I would like to use some songs with this but I can �t think of anything about moles or the seaside.  Maybe someone else has an idea? 
Thanks!
Esther

Hello Esther,

The song that best comes to mind is... I am a mole and I live in a hole The children �s song �The Mole in the hole � (1958) was sung by �The Southlanders �,

There is a traditional British song called "Oh I do Like to Be Beside the Seaside" which is quite catchy.

There �s a kind of animated version here:

A sing-a-long version here:

a b/w old movie version here (though you have to let it play for a while before it gets to the famous part):

And a super organ version very similar to what you would hear in a traditional theater on the end of a pier here:

You might enjoy showing them this one, too:

Wow! What awesome songs!  They are just perfect for my students.  I can �t believe that a "Mole in the Hole" song actually exists!  I am going to be going around humming the other two as well all day.
 
Thanks a million!
