Here’s another classic festive tune as our next #Makaton #SingingHands #CarpoolKaraoke – this time by the KIng himself, Elvis Presley.
2 Elvis Wigs? Check.
2 pairs of Elvis glasses? Check.
Lip curl? Check.
Pair of warbling puppets? Check.
This is a nice slow song to sign along to – bear in mind we are signing SAD for blue – not the colour blue of course. Likewise we are signing SNOW for white Christmas rather than the colour too. So go and get yourself a wig & glasses and channel your inner Elvis!
Here are the #Makaton signs we’ve chosen in brackets for you:
I’ll have a Blue Christmas without you ( I / SAD / CHRISTMAS / NO / YOU)
I’ll be so blue just thinking about you (I / SAD / THINK / ABOUT / YOU)
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree (DECORATE / RED / GREEN / XMAS TREE)
Won’t be the same dear, if you’re not here with me (NO / SAME / YOU / NO / HERE / WITH ME)
And when those blue snowflakes start falling (SAD / SNOW )
That’s when those blue memories start calling (SAD / REMEMBER)
You’ll be doin’ all right, with your Christmas of white (YOU / OK / XMAS / SNOW)
But I’ll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas (I / SAD / CHRISTMAS)
You’ll be doin’ all right, with your Christmas of white (YOU / OK / XMAS / SNOW)
But I’ll have a blue, blue Christmas (I / SAD / CHRISTMAS)
Have fun!
