Fingerplay: Six Little Penguins
Six little penguins off an iceberg did dive,
One bumped his beak, then there were five. Five little penguins swam the ocean floor,
One saw a whale, then there were four.
Four little penguins spun around, whee-ee!
One spun off, then there were three!
Three little penguins, with nothing to do,
One went fishing, then there were two.
Two little penguins, having lots of fun,
One fell of, then there was one.
One little penguin, when the day was done,
Went home to sleep, then there were none.

Three little kernels… (Hold up 3 fingers.)
Two little kernels… (Hold up 2 fingers.)
One little kernel… (Hold up 1 finger.)

Fingerplay: Five Little Pigs
Five little pigs rolled in the mud -
Squishy, squashy, squishy, squashy felt so good.
The farmer took one piggy out.
"Oink, Oink, oink," the pig did shout!
Continue with four, three, two, and one...
No little pigs rolled in the mud.
They all looked so clean and good.
The farmer turned his back and then,
those pigs rolled in the mud again.
