Five Little Ducks

Five little ducks went out one day

Over the hills and far away

Mother duck said, “Quack quack quack quack,”

But only four little ducks came back.

(count down to zero, then:)

Sad mother duck went out one day

Over the hills and far away

Mother duck said, “Quack quack quack quack,”

And all of the five little ducks came back!

I'm a Mean Old Dinosaur 

Sung to: "I'm a Little Teapot"

I'm a mean old Dinosaur 
Big and tall.

[stretch up high]
Here is my tail,

[swish your tail]

Here is my claw.

[show your "claws"]
When I get all hungry 
I just growl [grrrrrrrr]
Look out kids,

I'm on the prowl!

[stalk around]

How Much is That Doggie in the Window?

How much is that doggie in the window?

The one with the waggly tail?

How much is that doggie in the window?

I do hope that doggie’s for sale!

I don’t want a bunny or a kitty,

I don’t want a parrot that talks,

I don’t want a bowl of little fishies,

I can’t take a fish for a walk!

How much is that doggie in the window?

The one with the waggly tail?

How much is that doggie in the window?

I do hope that doggie’s for sale!
