The Skeleton Dance - Lyrics and Melody - Halloween Songs for Kids. “The Skeleton Dance” is a fun action song that teaches toddlers to name different bones in their bodies.
Many of us grew up knowing part of this song but we didn’t learn the chorus, which is about a dancing skeleton. Remember “the leg bone’s connected to the knee bone”? That’s this song! The original title of “The Skeleton Dance” was “Dem Bones” and it was a well-known spiritual song in the late 1800′s because it was based upon Ezekiel 37:1-14 where the prophet visits the Valley of Dry Bones. Nowadays it’s a catchy children’s tune, and one that happens to be perfect for Halloween with all that talk of skeletons and bones. :) This version comes from Super Simple Songs, which is a fantastic YouTube resource for children’s music.
