Songs


Ten on the Sled

There were 10 on the sled and the little one said “Move over, Move over”
So they all moved over and one fell off, there were 9 on the sled and the little one said …....

Five Little Snowpeople

Five little snowpeople, jolly and fat.
The first one waved a big, black hat.
The second one clapped his hands in the cold.
The third one's eyes blinked and rolled.
The fourth one stamped his feet up and down.
And the fifth one turned around and around.

Five Little Snowmen
5 little snowmen all in a row. (hold up 5 fingers and “dance” them)
They all had a hat and a great big bow (pat head and then make hands go out for in increments for a great, big bow)
The sun came shining bright one day (hands over head to make a sun)
And one little Snowman melted away (melt down to the ground)
