Five Little Leaves
Five little leaves so bright and gay, (hold up 5 fingers)
Were dancing on a tree one day. (wiggle fingers)
The wind came blowing through the town, (hold hands around mouth and blow)
One leaf came tumbling down. (roll hands downward)
Repeat the rhyme with 4 leaves, 3 leaves, 2 leaves, and 1 leaf
