Hooray Hooray!

It's Mermaid Day!

Shake your tailfin!

Splash and play!

Bubbles popping,

One, two, three,

Mermaid magic

Fills the sea!

On Mermaid Day, the mer-queen throws a big bash. She decorates with seashell garlands and seaweed bows. Creatures of all kinds arrive. Dolphins dance, narwhals play ring toss. But who's that lurking in the dark - is that a shark?

But mermaids know this shark won't bite. He's just shy. As night falls the guests say goodbye to a mer-mazing day.
