Fantastic Fall! Colorful leaves, twirling, whirling, falling.

Babies

Rhyme: Apple Tree

Away up high in the apple tree	life baby up high
I saw a little apple smiling at me
I jiggled, and tickled, the trunk of the tree	dance baby in the air
And down came the apple	bring baby down
For you and me	give baby a hug and a kiss

Toddlers

Rhyme: Fall Winds

Fall winds begin to blow	rock your body from side to side
Colored leaves fall fast and slow	flutter fingers up and down in the air
Twirling, whirling all around	turn self around, arms out at sides
Till at last, they touch the ground.	let hands fall to ground

Preschoolers

Song: The Turkey Strut (to the tune of "Hokey Pokey")
hear the tune of this song at http://kids.niehs.nih.gov/lyrics/hokey.htm

You put your right wing in,	right arm to the center of the circle and out again
You put your right wing out
You put your right wing in,
And you shake it all about	right arm to the center and shake
You do the turkey strut, and you turn yourself around,	struts like a turkey, head bobbing around in a circle
That's what it's all about!
You put your left wing in...	left arm to center or the circle
You put your drumstick in...	leg to the center of the circle
You put your stuffing in...	stick your tummy into the center of the circle
You put your tail feathers in...	backside into the center of the circle!
You put your turkey body in	whole self
