Book: Leaves in Fall by Martha E. H. Rustad
Song/Puppet: “So many Leaves are Falling on the Ground”
So many leaves are falling on the ground
Orange ones, yellow ones and even brown.
But the one little leaf that rhymes with…
Is my favorite color, it’s the color…
Song: “Clap Your Hands” – They Might Be Giants: Here Come the ABCs
Book: In the Middle of Fall by Kevin Henkes, illustrated by Laura Dronzek
Song: (Tune: “London Bridge”)
Autumn leaves are in the trees…All over town.
Autumn leaves are falling down…All over town.
Autumn leaves are whirling round…
Everybody rake them up…
Song: “The Wheels on the Bus” – Toddlers on Parade
Book: That Pup! by Lindsay Barrett George
Song: (Tune: Twinkle, twinkle)
Pumpkin, pumpkin on the ground, (touch the ground)
How’d you get so big and round? (make a big circle)
Once you were a seed so small, (pinch fingers together)
Now you are a great big ball! (make a big circle)
Pumpkin, pumpkin on the ground, (touch the ground)
How’d you get so big and round? (make a big circle)
