Five Little Mice 

Five little mice came out to play
Gathering crumbs along the way.
Out came pussycat sleek and fat,
Five little mice go scampering back.

Four little mice came out to play.
Gathering crumbs along the way.
Out came pussycat sleek and fat,
Three little mice go scampering back.

Three little mice came out to play.
Gathering crumbs along the way.
Out came pussycat sleek and fat,
Two little mice go scampering back.

Two little mice came out to play.
Gathering crumbs along the way.
Out came pussycat sleek and fat,
One little mouse goes scampering back.

 

Boing, Boing, Squeak

Boing, Boing, Squeak, BoingBoingSqueak.
A bouncing mouse is in my house 
He's been there for a week.  (Chorus)

He came from out of nowhere and quickly settled in.
I'm thankful that he came alone,
I heard he had a twin.

He bounces in the kitchen
He bounces in the den,
He bounces in the living room
Look, there he goes again!

That mouse just keeps on bouncing,
every minute of the day
He bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, Bounces
But he doesn't bounce away!

 

The More We Read Together    [Tune: The More We Get Together]

The more we read together, together, together,
The more we read together, the better it is!
'Cause reading and singing and talking together,
Is how you learn the six skills for reading by six.
