(Tune: “London Bridge Is Falling Down”)
See The Apples Falling Down
Falling down, Falling Down
See The Apples Falling Down
Down To The Ground
Pick The Apples And Throw Them Up
Throw Them Up, Throw Them Up
Pick The Apples And Throw Them Up
Up To The Sky
(Tune: “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”)
Apples juicy, Apples round,
On the trees and on the ground.
Apples yellow, Apples red,
Apple juice or pie or bread.
Apples crunchy, Apples sweet,
Apples are so good to eat!
(Tune: “Eensy Weensy Spider”)
Once a little apple seed was planted in the ground.
Down came the soft rain, falling all around.
Out came the sun as bright as bright could be
And that little apple seed grew to be an apple tree!!
(Tune: “Frere Jacques”)
Here’s my head.
Here’s my nose.
See my hands
Touch my toes
Reach up with my fingers,
High as they can go.
Wave them back,
To and fro.

(Tune: “Eensy, Weensy Spider”)
A fuzzy little caterpillar,
curled upon a leaf
spun her little chrysalis,
and then fell fast asleep.
While she was sleeping,
she dreamed that she could fly
and when she woke up from her nap,
she was a butterfly!
Scarecrow, Scarecrow turn around.
Scarecrow, Scarecrow Touch the ground.
Stand up tall and blink your eyes.
Raise your hands up to the sky.
Clap your hands, then tap your knees.
Turn around and tap your feet.
Scarecrow, Scarecrow touch your toes.
Scarecrow, Scarecrow tap your nose.
Swing your arms so very slow,
Now real fast to scare the crows!
Touch your head, jump up and down.
Now sit down without a sound.

(Tune: “I’m a Little Teapot”)
I’m a little dragon, strong and stout.
Here is my tail and here is my snout.
If I get upset, you better watch out!
I’ll roar, and shout, and stomp about.
Five little dragons went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Mother dragon said, “It’s time for your snack,”
Only four little dragons came roaring back.

Only three little dragons came roaring back.

Only one little dragon came roaring back.
