Flannel: “Five Little Cookies” (with Cookie Monster)
Five little cookies, with frosting galore,
Cookie Monster ate the pink one, then there were four.

Four little cookies, two and two, you see,
Cookie Monster ate the green one, then there were three.

Three little cookies, but before I knew,
Cookie Monster ate the blue one, then there were two.

Two little cookies, oh, what fun!
Cookie Monster ate the orange one, then there was one.

One little cookie, watch me run!
Cookie Monster ate the red one, then there were none.

Action Rhyme: “Little Birds”
Little birds, little birds, jump up and down.
Little birds, little birds, don’t make a sound.
Little birds, little birds, tip-toe to me.
Little birds, little birds, bend your knees.
Little birds, little birds, peep, peep, peep.
Little birds, little birds, sleep, sleep, sleep.
Little birds, little birds, fly to the leaves.
Little birds, little birds, sit down please.
