Sizes

As high as a house,

(reach up high)

As small as a mouse,
(crouch down low)

As wide as a barn,
(feet apart, arms spread wide)

As thin as a pin.
(stand straight)

My Balloon

Here I have a big balloon
Watch me while I blow.
Small at first, then bigger,
Watch it grow and grow.
(expand arms)
Do you think it's big enough?
Maybe I should stop.
For if I blow much longer,
My balloon will surely pop!
(big clap)

Watermelon Song

Watermelon, Watermelon,
(Make a circle with your arms.)

On the vine, On the vine,
(Curve hands and arms beside body.)

Sweet and red and juicy, Sweet and red and juicy,
(Rub your tummy.)

Please be mine! Please be mine!
(Palms together as though pleading.)

Watermelon, Watermelon,
(Make a circle with your arms.)

Thump, thump, thump,
Thump, thump, thump,
(Make a thumping movement with thumb and middle finger.)

I think you are ready- I think you are ready-
(Point, resting finger on your temple.)

Big and plump! Big and plump!
(Make a circle with your arms.)

My Big Balloon

I can make a big balloon
(hold out hands to make wide circle)

Watch me while I Blow
(point to self)

Small at first, then bigger,
Watch it grow and grow and grow.
(expand hands making smaller than bigger and bigger circle)

Do you think you think it is big enough?
Maybe I should stop.
For if I blow much longer,
My Balloon will surely pop!
(clap hands)

Dinosaurs Were...

Dinosaurs lived long ago.

Some walked
(stomp in place)

Some swam
(pretend to swim)

Some flew, you know!
(flap arms at sides)

Some were big
(hold hands high)

Some were small
(hold hands low)

Some were gigantic
(stretch arms out wide)

V-e-r-y tall!
(stretch arms up high)

Giraffe

A Giraffe is as tall as tall can be
(stretch arms way up)

He eats leaves right off trees
(open and close hands of out-stretched arms)

His legs are long and his neck is too.
(point to legs and neck)

And he can run faster than me or you.
(run in place)

Thanksgiving Dinner

Thanksgiving Dinner

Every day when we eat our dinner

Our table is so small
(interlace fingers of each hand, pushing fingers together, palms down, and thumbs extended to be table legs)

Just room for Mother, Father, Sister, Baby, And Me-that's all

But when Thanksgiving comes and company

You'd scare believe your eyes
(pull fingers and hands apart as far as possible keeping finger tips interlaced)

That very self-same table

Stretches out until it's this size.

Great Big Ball

A great big ball
(make a large circle with arms, touching finger tips)

A medium-size ball.
(make a smaller ball with arms)

A little ball I see
(join thumb and pointer finger to make small ball)

Let's see if we can count them
(make each ball as count)

One, Two, Three
