One-eyed Jack

One-eyed Jack, the pirate chief, (Put 1 hand over 1 eye)
Was a terrible, fearsome ocean thief. (Move hands like ocean waves)
He wore a peg upon one leg. (Point or touch one leg)
He wore a hook & a dirty look. (Curl one hand & look mean)
One-eyed Jack, the pirate chief, (Repeat motions above)
Was a terrible, fearsome ocean thief.

5. Fingerplay: Five Little Pirates

Five little pirates hear the gun roar.
One raised his black flag, and then there were four.
Four little pirates, sailing on the sea,
One tumbled overboard, and then there were three.
Three little pirates swam the ocean blue,
One swam away, and then there were two.
Two little pirates fighting in the sun,
One used a sword and then there was one.
One little pirate liked to have fun,
He found a treasure chest, and then there were none
