STORYTIME Songs and Rhymes!

ELEPHANTS DON’T FORGET

Elephant’s walking along the trails

Are holding hands by holding tails.

Baby elephant’s trunk begins to slip,

Mama elephant says “Don’t forget to grip.”

Baby elephant.

And elephants walk and feel so gay.

And when they walk it never fails

They’re holding hands by holding tails.

This week’s

theme:

Elephants

E 5 LITTLE ELEPHANTS

5 little elephants went out to play.

Over the hills and far away.

Mama elephant said, “Don’t forget to

come back.”

But only 4 came trudging back.

Repeat for 4, 3, 2, 1

Mama elephant cried, “Now we can’t

be a pack.”

And all 5 little elephants came trudging

back.

THE ELEPHANT

The elephant goes like this and that

(On all fours, moving around

slowly, like an elephant)

He’s very, very big,

(Standing up, reach arms high)

And he’s very, very fat.

(Stretch arms out to the sides,

to show how fat elephant is)

He probably wouldn’t make a very

good pet.

(wag finger “no-no”)

But he never never never never ever

forgets.

(point to head)

He has no fingers,

(Fisted hands, hiding fingers)

He has no toes,

(Wiggle toes)

But goodness gracious,

What a nose!

(Thumb to nose and wiggle fingers,

as if extending trunk)

AN ELEPHANT GOES LIKE

THIS AND THAT

An elephant goes like this and

that

He’s terribly big, and he’s terribly

fat

He has no fingers, he has no toes,

But goodness gracious, what a

nose!
