Let me hear you say.

Tuck your bottom lip inside your mouth and put your top teeth over it and say

Fly, fly, fly, we're flying to the sky.

Can you say that?

Yes. Fly, fly, fly. We're flying to the sky. If you'd like to fly with me, get your wings and we will see. Fly, fly, fly. We're flying very high. Let's do that again.
