Flannel: “Five Little Kernels”
(Put up the five kernel shapes on the board, as spread out as you can. When you say “POP!” slap a white popcorn shape right on top of one of the kernels.)
Five little kernels sizzling in the pot.
All of a sudden, one went POP!
Repeat, counting down until all the kernels have popped.

Song: “Dragon Pokey”
You put your claws in, you take your claws out,
You put your claws in, and you scratch them all about!
You do the Dragon Pokey and you turn yourself around,
That’s what it’s all about!
Additional verses:
Feet in/stomp them all about
Teeth in/chomp them all about
Tail in/swing it all about

Song: “DONUT” (Tune: “BINGO”)
I know a treat that’s round and sweet,
It’s fancy, fried, and tasty!
D-O-N-U-T
D-O-N-U-T
D-O-N-U-T
Please save a bite for me, hey!
Count down just as in “BINGO,” clapping for each letter as it’s replaced.
