Songs and rhymes to share:

If I Were A Leaf

If I were a leaf

I'd jump down from my tree (jump)

I'd dance in the wind (dance around)

I'd fly in the breeze (pretend to fly)

I'd change bright colors

I'd spin in the air (spin around)

Then I'd land on the ground (fall down)

I just don't know where! (shrug shoulders)

 

 

Falling Leaves

Little leaves falling down

(flutter fingers like falling leaves)

Red and yellow, orange and brown

Whirling, twirling, round and round

(Twirl hands in circles)

Falling softly to the ground

(flutter fingers to floor)

 

 

Maple Tree

Maple tree, maple tree

You grow so tall

(stretch arms up and out)

 

Your leaves turn gorgeous

Colors in the fall

 

(flutter fingers down)

Autumn Leaves

Leaves are falling from the trees

(flutter fingers down)

Yellow, brown and red

Falling, falling from above

One landed on my head!

(hand on head)

 

Leaves on the Ground

When the leaves are on the ground (point to floor)

Instead of on the trees (hands up high)

I'd like to make a pile of them (make pretend pile)

Way up to my knees (point to knees)

I'd like to run and jump in them (run in place and jump)

And kick them all around (kick)

I like the prickly feel of them (rub hands together)

And the crinkly, crackly sound

 

Fall

Autumn winds begin to blow (blow)

Colored leaves fall fast and slow (wave hands fast and slow)

Twirling, whirling, all around (turn body around)

Until at last they touch the ground (touch the ground)

 

Hush…The Leaves are Falling

The leaves are falling down (flutter fingers down)

Hush (softly place hands flat on the floor)

The leaves are falling down (flutter fingers down)

Hush (softly place hands flat on the floor)

Whisper, whisper, whisper ,whisper (sway hands back and forth)

The leaves are falling down (flutter fingers down)

Hush (softly place hands flat on the floor)
