Guest Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Help! I need some inspiration. Can anyone think of any Christmas or winter number rhymes which I could use with my reception class. Other than 'The Twelve Days of Christmas', I'm stuck! Alou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Ten little Christmas angels 10 little Christmas angels Flying in a line, One waits to rest her tired wings That leaves only 9. 9 little Christmas angels They cannot be late, One has to quickly shine the stars That leaves only 8. 8 little Christmas angels Flying down from heaven, One stops to play her harp That leaves only 7. 7 little Christmas angels With lot of presents and gifts, One has to tie another bow That leaves only 6. 6 little Christmas angels Go skating when they arrive, One wants to build a snowman That leaves only 5 5 little Christmas angels Sing carols at the door, One goes to sing to the animals That leaves only 4 4 little Christmas angels Light the Christmas tree, One stays to watch the children play That leaves only 3 3 little Christmas angels Have toys for me and you, One leaves a child a teddy bear That leaves only 2. 2 little Christmas angels Make paper chains for fun, One hangs them on the Christmas tree That leaves only one 1 little Christmas angel Flies back to heaven again, She calls for her friends to join her there So once more there are 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacquieL Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I've no idea where this comes from and I've tried to find it on Google but no luck. If we had sound I'd sing it, the tune is very jolly. If anyone knows where it came from I'd love to know. 5 little Christmas bells are ringing Ding dong ding-dong ding. Tidings of great joy they’re bringing, Ding dong ding-dong ding. Then one little bell, said it wasn’t feeling well, He thought it would be best, if he had a little rest. 4 little Christmas bells are ringing etc. Last verse 1 little Christmas bell was ringing Ding-dong ding-dong, ding, Tidings of great joy I’m bringing Ding-dong ding-dong, ding. The other little bells said ‘Wait, I hope it’s not too late. The rest has done us good. Let’s ring out as we should.’ So.. 5 little Christmas bells etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
