Counting Songs

Five Little Monkeys

Five little monkeys jumping on the bed.

One fell off and bumped his head.

Momma called the doctor and the doctor said,

“No more monkeys jumping on the bed!”

*Repeat with four, three, two, one.*

Beehive

Rhyme

Here is the beehive, (hold up fist)

But where are all the bees? (peek inside hand)

Hiding inside where nobody sees.

Watch them come creeping,

Out of their hives.

One, two, three, four, five. (fingers up as you count)

Buzzzzzzzz.

We’re Flying to the Moon

Tune of: The Farmer in the Dell

We’re flying to the moon.  

We’re flying to the moon.

Oh, what an adventure. 

We’re flying to the moon.

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 

BLAST OFF!

Five Green and Speckled Frogs 

Five green and speckled frogs, (hold up five fingers)

Sat on a speckled log,

Eating the most delicious bugs.

Yum! Yum! (rub stomach with opposite hand)

One jumped into the pool, (put one finger down)

Where it was nice and cool. 

Now there are four green speckled frogs.

Ribbit. Ribbit. 

(Repeat with four, three, two, one, no frogs)

Five Little Pumpkins

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, “We’re ready for some fun!”

Ooooo went the wind and out went the light.

And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight. 

Five Little Ducks 

Five little ducks went out one day.

Over the hills and far away.

Momma duck said, “Quack, quack, quack, quack.”

Four little ducks came waddling back.


Repeat with four, three, two, one.

The Ants Go Marching

The ants go marching one by one.

Hoorah! Hoorah!

The ants go marching one by one.

Hoorah! Hoorah!

The ants go marching one by one.

The little one stopped to suck his thumb.

And they all go marching down to the ground to get out of the rain. 

Two by two – tie his shoe

Three by three – climb a tree

Four by four – shut the door

Five by five – take a dive

Six by six – pick up sticks

Seven by seven – pray to heaven

Eight by eight – shut the gate

Nine by nine – check the time

Ten by ten – shout “THE END!”

One, Two Buckle My Shoe

Rhyme

One, two, buckle my shoe.

Three, four, shut the door.

Five, six, pick up sticks.

Seven, eight, close the gate.

Nine, ten, do it again!

This Old Man

This old man, he played one.

He played kick-knack on my thumb.

With a knick-knack paddywhack, give a dog a bone.

This old man came rolling home

Two – shoe

Three – knee

Four – door

Five – hive

Six – sticks 

Seven – up in heaven

Eight – gate

Nine – spine

Ten – once again

Ten in the Bed

There were ten in the bed and the little one said,

“Roll over. Roll over.”

So they all rolled over and one fell out.

*Repeat with nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.”
