Flannel Rhyme:
Five Cheeky Monkeys Swinging in a Tree.
Five cheeky monkeys swinging in the tree,
teasing Mr. Crocodile,
“You can’t catch me! You can’t catch me!”
Along came Mr. Crocodile as quiet as can be and…
Snap!
He ate him up for tea!
Four cheeky monkeys swinging in the tree…
Three cheeky monkeys swinging in the tree…
Two cheeky monkeys swinging in the tree…
One cheeky monkeys swinging in the tree,
teasing Mr. Crocodile,
“You can’t catch me… You can’t catch me!”
Along came Mr. Crocodile as quiet as can be and…
Snap!
“You missed me! You missed me!”

Flannel Rhyme:
Five little ducks
Went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Mother duck said
“Quack, quack, quack, quack”
But only four little ducks came back.

Went out one day
Over the hills and far away

“Quack, quack, quack, quack.”
But only three little ducks came back.

Went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Mother duck said
“Quack, quack, quack, quack.”
But only two little ducks came back.

One little duck
Went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Mother duck said
“Quack, quack, quack, quack.”
But none of the five little ducks came back.
Sad mother duck
Went out one day
Over the hills and far away
The sad mother duck said
“Quack, quack, quack.”
And all of the five little ducks came back.
March Repeating Scarf Songs:
Popcorn Kernels:
(To the Tune of Frere Jacques)
Popcorn kernels, popcorn kernels (wave scarves overhead)
In the pot, in the pot (make their scarves ‘disappear’ by bunching them up in their fists)
Shake them shake them shake them, shake them shake them shake them (shake)
’til they POP, ’til they POP (Toss scarves up into the air)
