Puppet/Flannel Song: “Five Little Sloths Went Climbing One Day” (Tune: “Five Little Ducks”)
Five little sloths went climbing one day,
High in the canopies, where they like to play.
The mama sloth called, “Aahh-eeeee!”
But only four little sloths came back.
Count down until no sloths come back.
A worried mama sloth went climbing one day,
High in the canopies, where they like to play.
The mama sloth called, “Aahh-eeeee!”
And all the little sloths came back!

Song (if time): “S-L-O-T-H”
The rainforest has many friends.
My favorite is the sloth.
S-L-O-T-H
S-L-O-T-H
S-L-O-T-H
I really love the sloth!
Count down just as in “BINGO,” clapping for each letter as it’s replaced.
