Guest Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Hi Neysa Walking through the jungle is a good one as you can incorporate any animals you want. Five cheeky monkeys swinging in the trees teasing the crocodile-that is a real favourite of our children. I went to visit a zoo one day-again you can use any animal you choose. I have some more but I will have to look at work tomorrow. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Do you need all the animals in one song? If not here are a few immediate thoughts ... We went to the animal fair. Daddy's taking us to the zoo tomorrow. Never smile at a crocodile. Nellie the elephant. The animals went in 2 by 2. (One elephant went out to play. Five little monkeys jumping on the bed.) I'm sure there are LOADS more. Harricroft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Another one is sung to the tune of one finger, one thumb keep moving. The words are A crocodile's very snappy A crocodile's very snappy A crocodile's very snappy He couldn't be anything else. You can add as many animals as you want and either use the sounds they make or an action-a snake can be either hisssssy or slithery. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Again not one of your animals but a favourite of ours:Alice the Camel Alice the camel has five humps (repeat three times) So go Alice go. Each verse one less until Alice the camel has no humps (3 times) For Alice is a horse! (spoken) Tune: Dem bones, dem bones. Gail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 One elephant went out to play Upon a spider's web one day He found it such enormous fun That he called for another elephant to come We start with one child, and then s/he chooses the next, and so on; great for counting....."So how many have we got now?"

Guest Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 'One little elephant went balancing, step by step on a piece of string, he thought it was such tremendous fun he called for another one to come along.' Children walk one foot in front of other arms out at sides to balance. 'Hi said the elephant look at me (use arm as trunk and point to yourself) I have a long trunk - can't you see (wave arm trunk about) It's an arm, it's a leg, it's a hand, it's a nose It pulls, and it pushes and it huffs and it blows have you ever seen an elephants trunk so fine, have you ever seen an elephants trunk like mine. we sang this in assembly with elephant masks on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
