A Pattern Song

Here's a song I wrote to help students learn about patterns and to answer the question, "What comes next?" A lot of the students I work with have been able to improve their abilities to identify and complete patterns by using visual aids and this song.
You can pattern anything! Whatever motivates the student: pictures of random, everyday objects, instruments pictures and/or sounds, favorite toys, pictures of objects they love, pictures of relatives (grandma, grandpa, dad, grandma, grandpa,dad,etc), and even pictures of cartoon characters they love to watch. What are your favorite patterns to use with kids?
