100 Animals

I went to the zoo
And what did I see?
100 animals
Looking at me.
There were,
10 tall giraffes, eating from the trees.
10 silly monkeys, scratching on their knees.
10 sleeping snakes, lying in the sun.
10 munching elephants, eating peanuts one by one.
10 leaping tigers, performing in the shows,
10 pink flamingos, standing on their toes.
10 grouchy bears, trying to get some sleep.
10 happy hippos, in the water deep.
10 roaring lions, walking two by two.
10 galloping zebras, all living in the zoo

Jungle Animals



This is the way the elephant goes
(clasp hands together , extend arms, move back and forth)

With a curly trunk instead of a nose

The rhino all hairy and fat

Has a sharp horn in place of a hat

The hippo with his mouth so wide-

Let's see what's inside
(hands together and open wide and close them)

The wiggly snake upon the ground

Crawls along without a sound
(weave hands back and forth)

But monkey see monkey do

is the funniest animal I ever knew!
(place thumbs in ears and wiggle fingers)

Hippo

A hip-, a hip-, a hippopotamus

Sat on, sat on, sat on, a city bus.
(spread arms and sway back and forth)
 
And all, and all, and all the people said,
"You're squishing us!"
(squish face)

Hippo on a Bus

 

A Hip, a hip, a hippopotamus

Got on, got on, got on a city bus

And all, and all, and all the people said,

You're squishing us

(squish your face with your hands)
