Book: Berry Song by Michaela Goade
Song: “I Wake Up My Hands”
I wake up my hands with a clap, clap, clap,
A clap, clap, clap, a clap, clap, clap,
I wake up my hands with a clap, clap, clap,
And I wiggle my waggles away.
Additional verses:
Feet – stomp
Head – nod
Belly – beep
Eyes – blink

Song: “Pop Goes the Berry” (Tune: “Pop Goes the Weasel”)
All around the strawberry fields,
We picked some juicy berries
We brought them home and washed them off,
Pop! Go the berries! (have kids jump up on “pop”)
Additional verses: blueberry, blackberry, huckleberry, raspberry

Book: Share, Big Bear, Share! by Maureen Wright, illustrated by Will Hillenbrand
Puppet/Flannel: “Five Red Strawberries”
Five red strawberries, sweet to the core.
Bear came and ate one and then there were four.
Four red strawberries, growing near a tree.
Bear came and ate one and then there were three.
Three red strawberries, for you and you and you.
Bear came and ate one and then there were two.
Two red strawberries, sitting in the sun.
Bear came and ate one and then there was one.
One red strawberry, left all alone.
Bear came and ate it and then there were none.
