Idioms with pink

An idiom is a combination of words that,in addition to a literal meaning, have a figurative meaning due to its common usage. There are thousands of idioms and they occur in all languages. In English there are at least 25.000 idiomatic expressions. It's really funny that when you talk a lot, "hablas por los codos" if you are Spanish, but if you are English "you talk the hind legs off a donkey".



Today I want to show you some idioms with the color pink.


Now two questions for you:
-What happens when you see pink elepants?
-What is the meaning of 'pinkie'?

I love old sayings with a lovely rhythm, don't you?

And what about a pun suitable for today? 


Pun: a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings.

This is a song about dancing skeletons; I know it's for students younger than mine, but they are so cute! Children can practise the parts of the body in English.
