Five Monkeys

Five Monkeys

Five little monkeys swinging on a tree
(fingers extended swing your hand back and forth)

Teasing Mr. Alligator, "can't catch me, can't catch me
(shaking your head, wag your finger like you're saying "no, no")

Along came Mr. Alligator quiet as can be and
(say this in a whisper, making a SSSHHH motion)

SNAP!
(clap hands together like the mouth of an alligator)

Four little monkeys swinging on a tree...
Three little monkeys swinging on a tree...
Two little monkeys swinging on a tree...
One little monkey swinging on a tree...
