This little cow eats hay
This little cow looks over the bridge
This little cow runs away
And this big cow does nothing at all (touch thumb)
But lie in the fields all day.
Hey Diddle DiddleHey diddle diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon,
The little dog laughed to see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.4. Read second story The Cow that Went Oink, Cows Going Past, Kiss the Cow!, Peek-a-moo!, or When Cows Come Home

Old MacDonald had a farm,Ee i ee i oh!
And on his farm he had some chicks,Ee i ee i oh!
With a cluck-cluck here, And a cluck-cluck there
Here a cluck, there a cluck, Everywhere a cluck-cluck
Old MacDonald had a farm Ee i ee i oh!

With a moo-moo here,And a moo-moo there
Here a moo, there a moo, Everywhere a moo-moo
Old MacDonald had a farm,Ee i ee i oh!

And on his farm he had some pigs, Ee i ee i oh!With an oink-oink here, And an oink-oink there

Old MacDonald had a farm Ee i ee i oh!
