Fingerplay: I HAD A LITTLE TURTLE

I had a little turtle.                                                              Make a fist with thumb sticking out
He lived in a box                                                                  Cup hand to form box
He swam in a puddle,                                                         Make swimming motions
He climbed on the rocks.                                                  Make climbing motions
He snapped at a mosquito; he snapped at a flea,          Snap fingers
He snapped at a minnow; he snapped at me.
He caught the mosquito; he caught the flea.                  Make catching motions with hands
He caught the minnow, but he didn’t catch me!            Shake finger and head ‘ no, no’
