We are walking

To the tune of: Frere Jacques

We are walking, We are walking,

Far and near, Far and near.

Better take a sweater, Better take a sweater,

Fall is Here, Fall is Here.

Apples

To Tune of: Rock-A-Bye Baby

This is the tree

With leaves so green

Here are the apples

That hang in between

When the wind blows

The apples will fall drop down

And here is the basket

to gather them all.

I like Apples!

To the Tune of: Frere Jacques

I like apples, I like apples,

Yes I do, Yes I do,

Crispy and so crunchy,

Munchy, munchy, munchy

Good for you, good for you!!!!

Five Leaves

Five little leaves up in a tree,

One little leaf said, 'Look at me!

The leaf let go and down he fell,

Ouch! He didn't feel so well.

Repeat with the other 4 leaves.

Apple on the Ground

Apple, Apple,
(hold up paper apple)

Juicy and round
(run finger around outer edge of apple)

I found you lying on the ground
(place apple on the floor)

I picked you up
(pick up apple)

And what did I see?
(stick index finger through hole in apple)

A big fat worm looking back at me!
(wiggle finger)

All the Leaves

 All the leaves are falling down
(flutter fingers downward)

Orange, green, red, and brown.
(flutter fingers)

If you listen, you'll hear them say,
(cup hands around ears)

"Wintertime is on it's way."
(whispering)

October Time

October time is pumpkin time,
The nicest time of the year. 

When all the pumpkins light their eyes
(encircle eyes) 

And grin from ear to ear.
(big grin) 

Because they know at Halloween
They'll have lots of fun, 

Peeking through the windowpanes
(put hands over eyes and look) 

Watching children run!

Pumpkin Seed

Pumpkins, pumpkin on the ground
(crouch down)

How'd you get so big and round?
(big circles with arms)

Once you were a seed so small,
(pretend to hold a seed)

Now you are a great big ball!
 (circles)

Pumpkin, pumpkin on the ground
How'd you get so big and round? (big circle)

Pumpkin Pie

(Count off on fingers, then hold out both hands face up)

Five little pumpkins sitting on the ground

The first one said, "I'm big, orange and round!"

The second one said, "I'm fresh off the vine!"

The third one said, "I taste divine!"

The fourth one said, "I'm ready to be tasted!"

The fifth one said, "Bake my seeds so they're not wasted!"

Someone from the kitchen picked them up and we know why....

The five little pumpkins all became Pumpkin Pie.

My Apple

Look at my apple. It is nice and round.
(create a circle with both hands)

It fell from a tree down to the ground.
(move fingers of one hand down)

Come, let me share my apple, please do!
(beckon)

My Mother can cut it in half
(make slicing motion)

One half for me and one half for you.
(hold out each hand, one after the other)

Swaying Apple Tree

Here is the apple tree with leaves so green,
(stand up and stretch and hang arms and hands out to your sides)

Here are the apples that hang in between,
(make a small circle with your two hands)

When the wind blows,
(sway body and arms back and forth)

The apples will fall,
(crouch down on the floor)

Let's use a basket to gather them all!
(pretend to pick up apples and put them into a basket)

Scarecrow

The scarecrow stands
(stand up)

with hanging hands
(outstretched arms)

Beside the farmer's stile

He scares away the jay and the crow
(step forward)

With just a painted smile
(stretch out arms and grin)

Squirrel Gathers Nuts

These are brown leaves,
fluttering down,
(flutter hands down to ground)

And this is the tall tree
(hold up right arm)
Bare and brown.

This is the squirrel
(make fist with left hand, stick thumb up)

With eyes so bright
(two circles with thumbs and index fingers)

Hunting for nuts,
With all of his might

This is the hole
(make hole with right thumb and index finger)

Where day by day
Nut after nut

He stores away
(place nuts in hole with left hand)

When winter comes
With its cold and storm

He'll sleep curled up,
(circle right hand around left fist)
All snug and warm.

Leaves on the Ground

When the leaves are on the ground,
(point to ground)

Instead of on the trees
(hold hands over head)

I like to make a pile of them

Way up to my knees
(clasp knees)

I like to run and jump in them
(jump once)

And kick them all around
(kick with foot)

I like the prickly feel of them

And the crickly, crackly sound.
(snap fingers)

Autumn Leaves

Autumn Leaves are floating down,
(float arms and hands up and down)

They make a carpet on the ground

Then swish, the wind comes whistling by,
(move arms to the side quickly)

And sends them dancing to the sky.

Autumn

The trees are gently dropping,
Leaves onto the ground
(flutter fingers down)

The flowers are all nodding,
Down and all around
(turn around slowly)

The wind is blowing
A chilly breeze
(sway back and forth)

The birds are flying
Into the trees
(flap arms like wings)

I'm a Little Pumpkin

Tune: I'm a Little Teapot

I'm a little pumpkin, fat and round

Here is my face making a frown

I'm a little pumpkin, tall and thin

Here is my face, making a grin

I'm a little pumpkin, I've got style

Here is my face making a smile!

October

The Month is October
With Leaves Falling Down
(flutter fingers)

That were once all

Yellow, Scarlet, and Brown

Falling Leaves

All the leaves are falling down

(flutter fingers downward)


Orange, green, red, and brown.

(flutter fingers)



If you listen, you'll hear them say,

(cup hands around ears)



"Wintertime is on it's way."

(whispering)

Ten Red Apples

Ten Red Apples

Here I have five apples.
(hold up five fingers on right hand)

And here are five again.
(hold up both hands)

How many apples altogether?
Why, five and five makes ten.
