Spin, Earth, Spin

'Spin, Earth, Spin' highlights the movement of the Earth, the moon, the sun and the planets in the solar system. As well as each sphere spinning on its axis, the smaller bodies orbit around the larger ones, all moving around the sun. As they move some - including the Earth - ‘wobble’ or ‘wiggle’ slightly, in part due to the uneven distribution of mass around the planet. The song will also stimulate learning and discovery about light and dark and help raise awareness of our Earth as a life-support system.
