5.                   Fingerplay - Five Umbrellas

Five umbrellas stood by the back door,
The red one went outside, then there were four.
Four umbrellas stood pretty as can be,
The blue one went outside, then there were three.
Three umbrellas stood with nothing to do,
The green one went outside, then there was two.
Two umbrellas stood watching for the sun,
The yellow one went outside, then there was one.
Just one umbrella stood alone in the hall,
The white one went outside, and then that was all!

Hop, hop, hop, hop Home to your mother!  [Hop away in four hops.]
