Welcome To Storytime! [tune: Twinkle, Twinkle]
Welcome, welcome everyone,
Now we're here, let's have some fun.
First we'll sing the ABC's,
then we'll read and sing with me.
Welcome, welcome, everyone,
Now we're here let's have some fun.
Autumn Leaf Shuffle by Elizabeth Giles
Move those feet and start to prance.
Let us do an autumn dance.
Tap your toes upon the ground,
when a bunch of leaves are found.
Shuffle left; then shuffle right.
Crunch those leaves with all your might.
Toss a few into the air.
Skip around, just let people stare.
Shuffle step and jump with me,
As we dance around the tree.
Leaves [Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star]
All join hands and circle round, while we watch the leaves fall down.
See them twirling to the ground, See them whirling all around.
See them skipping here and there See them flipping in the air.
Autumn leaves so peacefully Falling, falling from the tree.
Little Leaves[Tune:Ten Little Indians]
One little, two little, three little leaves,
four little, five little, six little leaves,
Seven little, eight little, nine little leaves,
ten little leaves fall down from the tree.
Fall Is...
Fall is leaves that fall to the ground.
Fall is pumpkins all around.
Fall is a chilliness in the air.
Fall is coats and sweaters to wear.
Fall is for Halloween coming soon.
Fall is for the huge harvest moon.
Fall is gradually shorter days.
Fall is a squirrel gathering nuts as he plays.
Fall is a lot of things for you and me.
Fall is a beautiful season to see.
It is Autumn [Tune: Skip to My Lou]
It is autumn up in the tree. It is autumn up in the tree.
It is autumn up in the tree. Up in the tree it's autumn.
Leaves are changing up in the tree...
Leaves are falling from the tree...
Acorns are growing up in the tree...
Squirrels are living up in the tree....
