Little Turtle

There was a little turtle,
(Make small circle with hands.)

He lived in a box,
(Make a box with both hands.)

He swam in a puddle,
(Wriggle hands.)

And climbed on the rocks.
(Climb fingers of one hand up over the other.)

He snapped at a mosquito.
(Clap hands)

He snapped at a flea.
(Clap hands.)

He snapped at a minnow.
(Clap hands.)

He snapped at me.
(Point at self.)

He caught the mosquito.
(Hold hand up, palm forward; quickly bend fingers shut.)

He caught the flea.
(Repeat.)

He caught the minnow.
(Repeat.)

But he didn't catch me.
(Bend fingers only half-way shut.)
