Five Little Pumpkins

Here is a finger play we've been reciting at school. The children made their own pumpkin people and we dramatized the actions along with the chant. Why don't you and your child say it together?

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate.

The first one said, "Oh my, it's getting late!"

The second one said, "There are witches in the air!"

The third one said, "But we don't care!"

The fourth one said, "Let's run and run and run!"

The fifth one said, "I'm ready for some fun!"

OOOOhhhhh went the wind and OUT went the light 

and the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!
