Five Little Cookies

 Five little cookies in the bakery shop.
Shinning bright with the sugar on top. Along comes (child's name) with a nickel to pay. He/she buys a cookie and takes it away. (continue with four, three, two and one).

Five Little Firefighters

Five little fire fighters sit very still
  (hold up five fingers)
  Until they see a five on top of the hill
 
Number one rings the bell, ding-dong.
  (bend down thumb)
  Number 2 pulls his big boots on.
  (bend down pointer finger)
  Number 3 climbs on the truck right away.
  (bend down middle finger)
  Number 4 joins him, no one can wait.
  ( bend down ring finger)
  Number 5 drives the truck to the fire.
  (bend down little finger)
  The big yellow flames go higher and higher.
  (spread arms)
  Whooo-ooo!  Whooo-ooo!  Hear the fire truck say
  (imitate siren)
  As all of the cars get out of the way.
 
Shhh!  goes the water from the fire hose spout,
  (rub palms together)
 
And quicker than a wink the fire is out!
    ( clap hands.
)

Five Fat Peas



Five fat peas in a pea pod pressed (children hold hand in a fist)
  One grew, two grew, so did all the rest. (put thumb and fingers up one by one)
  They grew and grew
 (raise hand in the air very slowly)
  And did not stop, Until one day
  The pod went POP! (children clap hands together)
