Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a
pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown and Jill
went tumbling after
Then up Jack got and home did trot as fast as
he could caper
He went to bed and patched his head
With vinegar and brown paper.

Song- Five Little Monkeys Swinging
in a Tree
Five little monkeys swinging in a tree,
Teasing the alligators, you can catch me, you can catch me....
Along came a alligator quiet as can be.......
And snapped that monkey right out of that tree!
Four little monkeys swinging in a tree,
Teasing the alligators, you can catch me, you can catch me....
Along came a alligator quiet as can be.......
And snapped that monkey right out of that tree!
Three little monkeys swinging in a tree,
Teasing the alligators, you can catch me, you can catch me....
Along came a alligator quiet as can be.......
And snapped that monkey right out of that tree!
Two little monkeys swinging in a tree,
Teasing the alligators, you can catch me, you can catch me....
Along came a alligator quiet as can be.......
And snapped that monkey right out of that tree!
One little monkey swinging in a tree,
Teasing the alligators, you can catch me, you can catch me....
Along came a alligator quiet as can be.......
And snapped that monkey right out of that tree!
No little monkeys swinging in a tree...

Song: Peanut Butter and Jelly
Peanut, Peanut Butter
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly.
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly.
First you take the peanuts and you
dig em, you dig em, you dig em, dig em, dig em.
Then you crush em, you crush em,
you crush em, crush em, crush em.
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly.
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly.
Then you take the berries and you
pick em ……
Then you squish em, you squish em…
Then you take the bread and you
spread em, you spread em ……
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly.
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly
Then you take the sandwich and you
bite it, you bite it ….
Then you chew it, you chew it, you
chew it chew it chew it…
Then you swallow, you swallow, you
swallow, swallow, swallow (GULP)
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly.
Peanut, peanut butter. Jelly
