Ten Red Mittens

Ten red mittens, hanging on the line,

This one blew away, and then there were nine.

Nine red mittens, each one ready for a date,

This one fell down, and then there were eight.

Eight red mittens, one belonged to Evan,

This one found its boy, and then there were seven.

Seven red mittens, doing fancy tricks,

This one found a girl, and then there were six.

Six red mittens, looking so alive,

This one found the baby, then there were five.

Five red mittens, as pretty as before,

This one floated off, and then there were four.

Four red mittens, waving wild and free,

This one lost a clothespin, then there were three.

Three red mittens, looking very new,

This one fell in the mud, then there were two.

Two red mittens, left in the sun,

This one faded away, and then there was one.

One red mitten, tried to run,

It blew up in the air, and then there were none.

The Monkeys and the Alligator

Five little monkeys sitting in a tree

Teasing Mr. Alligator “Can’t catch me.”

Along came Mr. Alligator quiet as can be

And snapped that monkey right out of that tree.

(Continue to go count down.)

Shoo Lie Loo

Just from the kitchen, shoo lie loo

With a handfull of biscuits, shoo lie loo

Oh (Miss/ Mr.)____________ shoo lie loo

Fly away over yonder, shoo lie loo.

(repeats with each child's name)

Shake My Sillies Out

I gotta shake, shake, shake my sillies out

Shake, shake, shake my sillies out

Shake, shake, shake my sillies out

And wiggle my waggles away

I gotta clap, clap, clap my crazies out

Clap, clap, clap my crazies out

Clap, clap, clap my crazies out

And wiggle my waggles away

I gotta jump, jump, jump my jiggles out

Jump, jump, jump my jiggles out

Jump, jump, jump my jiggles out

And wiggle my waggles away

I gotta yawn, yawn, yawn my sleepies out

Yawn, yawn, yawn my sleepies out

Yawn, yawn, yawn my sleepies out

And wiggle my waggles away

I gotta shake, shake, shake my sillies out

Shake, shake, shake my sillies out

Shake, shake, shake my sillies out

And wiggle my waggles away
