Five fat peas in a pea pod pressed
                  (children hold hand in a fist)
One grew, two grew, so did all the rest.
                  (put thumb and fingers up one by one)
They grew and grew
                   (raise hand in the air very slowly)
And did not stop,
Until one day
The pod went POP!
                  (children clap hands together)
 

One potato, two potato,
Three potato, four,
Five potato, six potato,
Seven potato, more!
 

Five little cookies in the bakery shop.
Shining bright with the sugar on top.
Along comes (child's name) with a nickel  to pay.
He/she buys a cookie and takes it away.

        (continue with four, three, two and one).
 

Five red apples
Hanging on a tree    (five fingers held up)
The juiciest apples you ever did see!
The wind came past
And gave an angry frown     (shake head and look angry)
And one little apple came tumbling down.

Four red apples, etc.
